One possible outcome here is that we ask IPS to kick up the priority of implementing filters to help solve the problem. Anyway, thanks for digging in, Laca. We can certainly ensure that stuff that's split out into separate packages stays out. For the moment, no need to do anything, I'm waiting on some data about l10n and other things before putting together revised recommendations. Are there any other significant changes in the 2.23.x packages that we need to account for? Dave
