Btw., I think we should do the TUI interface _before_ we can merge the 
kernel changes. Frankly, 'not very user friendly' means that it's not used 
(and tested) much - which begs the question: why merge the feature at all?

Making a new kernel feature usable to as many people as possible must be a 
primary concern, not an afterthought.
