And if someone can explain to me why 2 months of review and scrutiny
of these patches has shifted in another direction, I'd really like
to understand that.
One reason is that you're sort of making it clear that this feature is
for something else.  Something that you can't disclose at this time,
which of course in and of itself is perfectly fine.

However, if you can't talk about the real motivation for this feature,
and it really doesn't stand %100 on it's own as-is without that
information (I don't think it does), trying to get this work in now
using a different premise it's a little bit dishonest.  Don't you
think?

It's also a bit unreasonable to ask the community to buy into a
technology, the real purpose of which you cannot even talk about.

I'm sure everyone is happy to reconsider this work when the real
motivation can be talked about in the open.

Thanks.
