I have to say that this seems EXTREMELY late to be raising as an issue now.
I also have to say that I don't see that this would be that critical as
it's something that's never been raised up until this point. If it were a
reported issue that we just never got around to addressing that might be
different.
As Thierry pointed out the bug trajectory is not quite what we want yet
anyway, so reworking a feature that "works" but just doesn't work as
efficiently as it could/should doesn't seem like it meets the requirements
for an FFE at all. All of these things combined with how late the request
is it seems to me like it's pretty difficult to consider this for Havana.
Thanks,
John
