For something as common (in principle, at least) as these, I think it might be useful in these posts *as RFEs), to commit an outline/spec (so others can PR against it), which also considers the merits of Things Already Written, and what (if any) enhancements etc they might need (and I suspect they will, as noted, things are scattered about with separate components, rather than a collexion of microservices that plugin). It strikes me that something like this already exists, and may be even as far as 70% there (i.e. general functionality that works well, is well maintained & documented). It also feels (in my mind) a more open-source way of working, and could benefit from receiving updates etc from 'upstream'. > A bit of advice: I tend to disagree with Our Fearless Leader: I think > there's more of a role for "core" in this.
