I think really the main issue is switching out FProxy. This will take a lot of
effort and people aren't ready to commit to it, especially people that are used
to working with FProxy.

For this reason, I think it'd be easier to have someone completely new to the
project, to work on what you're suggesting; maybe a couple of GSoC students.
There needs to be a lot of base stuff done before pupok can start with her
stuff, and this will take a long time to do.

You're right, in the long run it's better to use a 3rd-party framework.
