I'm hopeful that you'll continue working on this after GSoC is over (for those playing along at home, Abhradeep's coding period was extended by a couple of weeks). But even if you don't, this is a great artifact to leave around on the list for somebody else who is interested in this area to pick up in the future, and benefit from all of the work that you've done so far. I am still working through my post-Git Merge backlog, but I'm looking forward to reading these patches soon. I'm glad that other reviewers have already started to dive in :-). Well done! Thanks, Taylor
