I think it would be good to file some feature requests for specific API / functionality that you'd like to see added. There are a lot of things here that we just weren't ready to commit to forever, and since the code is open source you at least can copy/paste a big chunk of it if needed and that still leaves us with some flexibility to change our implementation in the future without breaking you. So while copy/paste is not the nicest, it is a lot nicer than us committing to API prematurely. However if you have specific use cases that need to be supported, we can start doing the planning to see how we can accommodate that.
