I am undecided but something occurred to me in the shower this AM which made me wonder whether Carsten's proposal will work. As blocks evolve into real blocks, the changes will need to happen right in the src/blocks. Can we guarantee (or will it be too painful to ensure) that all changes will be back-compatible with 2.1? IOW, we will soon start having new configurations, etc. moving into the blocks source, possibly shuffling around of dir structure and probably deprecating some things currently necessary (like some of the configuration patching). Just thinking out loud...
Exactly, and also one of my concerns with Carsten's proposal. We can't demand backwards-compatibility from block developers, and if blocks are shared between version from inside the 2.1 workspace, this would be the case.
