The patches are on the list to discuss what it takes for inclusion. Like all other patches, it could be accepted or rejected. I am working on it to be accepted *of course* but it's not my decision. I just can't assume or take it for granted this will go in. I didn't see a straight no yet, so hopefully this is moving in the right direction. My point is there's still more discussion to be had and what presented in this RFC could change completely.
