I missunderstood.  I though you were saying that what is currently in
is final and will *never* be changed.  Thanks for the clarification.

Nevertheless, this is a legitimate topic for discussion, and the 
issues are fresh in people's minds. That's independent of any 
impediments that might block implementing changes at the current time.

I think it'd be a good idea to at least agree on a good TODO list, and 
commit that to the bugtracker. Because it may turn out that some changes 
are fine to delay, while some must be implemented now or never (because, 
for example, a large ammount of compiler code will get broken because of 
them).
