As you mention above, we would need to integrate it into the monolithic
tree for the 6.9/7.0 release since the code is shared between the two
trees.  If it is something that Ivan and Sergey feel is well tested and
is ready to be put into wide use, then we should consider it; otherwise,
it would probably be wise to wait until after the initial release.
