Yeah, I've halted work for now until the summit when I can talk to other
folks (at the related meeting that is scheduled) -- and I believe I agree
that merging this functionality into the SDK is the best path forward. I
will probably be able to assist somewhat with that as well. I wish I knew
about the discussions that happened last year, I could already have been
working on that... T_T
