Ah - ok - I got that reply, and then lost track of it.  My bad.

This doesn't make sense to me.  We don't just decree that we aren't
planning on supporting something that's already out there and being
used, and then remove it, on the grounds we aren't supporting it.

Faceless beauracracies can get away with that ... we can do better.

I don't plan for removing it yet, because I haven't seen a good
reason to remove it.

> Did you get a chance to look at patch that addresses hotplug/domain issues ?

Not yet.
