Ben,

As you know, it needs cleanup in firmware to free up space for new 
interface
changes. Most of time we try to leverage rsvd/unused slots. I am aware 
of that
you did a lot of clean up in CT firmware which is quite hard in official
firmware as it also has to support prop. releases. Kalle can answer much 
better.
