I will implement something only if at least the people into the
discussion think that it's worth it. Currently I feel like I took a lot
of energy to work openly with spencerone to arrive to the best proposal
and it basically failed. So if you want to take over, be welcome, but
don't expect me to put as much energy as I did within the last months
with it.
