Comment # 3 on bug 1028988 from Stefan Hundhammer

Looks like this got stuck; nobody seems to know how to proceed.

IIRC this is a decision we cannot make on this level; this needs to go up to
product / project manager or architect level. I suggest you open a FATE entry
for this so it goes through the proper channels. We cannot just change anything
as fundamental as this on the developer level.

Therefore, closing as RESOLVED FEATURE.
