Just to be clear, what is the intent here? Is it intended to get this into 1.7 or is this 1.8 material at this point? We're effectively past the toolchain freeze point for 1.7, just about at complete feature freeze but I'd like to make sure we're thinking the same things. I'm certainly happy to get this through the autobuilder and see what happens... Cheers, Richard
