Personally speaking, it is better we do the cleanup and integrate to
mainline. since we are in the process of cleaning up, it might be a
good idea for contributions from you and all interested folks to
ensure that the final code will support the configurations we all need
:)

meanwhile, any temp hacks might be better off in private trees is my 2 cents..
