Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for sharing your view on this.
I sent patches 1,2 updated with your comments. I dropped following
patches for the time being, as it obviously require additions...

I agree with your analysis and concerns above.
I hope Lars or others can give some feedback or guidelines on output
buffer? Is there something already, we may start to work on ?

Thanks all in advance.
Best Regards,
Fabrice
