Hi Rafeal,
Apologies for the delay. I understand that turning internal details into an
ABI can severely hinder future improvements, and I acknowledge that this is
a critical barrier for the current approach. I do not currently have a more
specific or compelling use case beyond this initial need.
Please ignore this patch.
Kind regards,
