Then we could still switch one gear down, converting at least some
exemplary devices completely to demonstrate that the API changes fit
into the big picture.
My plan is:
- post RFC v1 with updated API in patch form
- RFC v2 with implementation + significant fraction of PC devices coverted
- PATCH v3 with full conversion an elimination of the old API
