Actually, that is probably a good thing.

As we (including you, whose initial work was instrumental to
stir the discussion that led to the one by Linus) answer them
here, we will accumulate bodies of text that describe what can
be done today, what are missing, what needs to be recursive and
what approaches we can take in the Porcelains.  Somebody can
summarize and write documentation pages and to-do list out of
that.
