There was some discussion about this on IRC earlier today I guess. My current opinion is that I'm sort of waiting to see how the userspace setup side pans out before committing to doing anything with this. If the userspace setup is simple enough that it's not going to change and it doesn't make the UI horrendously bad, I'm definitely not against adding it. Jeremy
