I didnt' see 20 replies. I saw alot of "hmmm..., I can see where you would want it, but I don't think it's a good idea". I'm still of the mind (as I replied already) that it *definitely* shouldn't go in 2.2, and I'm not even sure I like it in 3.0 personally, but since 3.0 is for experimental stuff, I'm less likely to raise a stink about it.
