Maybe -- if it's actually a good idea :>

Ahh, thanks, I didn't realize that.

Perhaps I wasn't as clear as I could have been.  *None* of the stuff I
mentioned is actually in any existing g-wrap tree (that I know of).
G-wrap, as I'm about to commit it to CVS, hasn't really changed
notably from the current public release.  I only mentioned all of the
things that I did so that everyone would know what I've been
speculating about and investigating for the past 9 months or so.

My immediate goals are just to get the code into CVS, and then start
working with Andreas (and anyone else) to figure out what of the
outstanding improvements needs incorporating, and how best to
incorporate them.

Does that help clarify?
