Please wait until you see a complete implementation that actually works. I'=
m=20
sitting here quietly, following (and now breaking) the "If you can't say=20
anything positive, don't say anything at all" line because I think that the=
=20
more into the implementation details people get, the uglier this is going t=
o=20
show itself to be. I'm perfectly willing to be proven wrong, but haven't se=
en=20
anything so far that's even begun to convince me otherwise.
