While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of time. It is likely that to support a "prime clone from CDN", it would need a lot more than just "these are the heads and the pack data is over there", so this may not be sufficient. Will discard.
You could mark it as experimental, subject to change, and merge it to `next` safely. Ciao, Dscho
