This plan has been simmering for some months now. I'm probably
responsible for keeping it from dying, so I'll offer my apologies if
you don't approve.

Anyway, I discussed it with Ian around Mesa 10.2. While I don't think
he was excited about it, he also did not express any reasons for not
doing it. Basically, we were going to look at it again around Mesa
10.3 release time.

Since Emil took over handling the Mesa releases, I brought him into
the discussion.

As another data point, I think Chad would also like to see this
happen.
