Hi Walter, thanks for working on this great enhancement! A general comment: I know you have been working on this for a while and did several rounds of reviews. It is better to propose the Feature itself for the release as early as possible. As the Acceptance of the Feature itself has nothing to do with the actual code we can decide upfront if the Feature is suitable for the release [1]. (Merging of the Feature code is in agreement with the module maintainer following the Sugar coding guidelines and the review process [2]). The Feature does meet all the criteria listed in [1] and the Feature page does present the Feature well, too. Please don't forget to change the category when you want to propose the Feature for inclusion (Once the feature owner believes that the feature is ready for presentation to the Release Manager for acceptance move your feature from Category:Feature Page Incomplete to Category:Feature Ready for Release Manager. The Release Manager will then do the sanity check [3]).
