That's good. My impression of it "not going to happen" was due
to lack of seeing any discussion on it for some weeks. To be fair,
the impending 2.2 release and the recent all-hands-on-deck security
scramble should take the front seat in any case.

As always, whatever it takes with the time I have available.
I'm all for the idea of restructuring to make this easier,
but of course before we do that, we need a clear idea of what
we're actually trying to achieve.

Perhaps this discussion is more pertinent in freebsd-config?
Or is that only for kernel config related discussion?
