 > This ticket is not going to get anywhere if it's just a lot of back and
 forth, some of it not in the most appropriate tone, complete with
 questioning the intelligence of a core developer willing to share the
 current collective opinion of the core team on this. It's only going to
 cause the folks who you want to pay attention to this ticket to simply
 mute it.

 Point taken.

 But please reread my comments because I don't want to be misunderstood; I
 questioned only the level of familiarity related to the use cases. In no
 way did question intelligence and if that is how it came across I
 profusely apologize.

 > At the moment, this reads more like a wp-hackers discussion, and it
 belongs there. If any movement is going to happen on this, there needs to
 be solid consensus on a flexible system that can address clear, popular
 use cases. I see all sorts of use cases but I'm not convinced they can't
 be implemented with the existing schema; I've also seen, what, three or
 four conflicting ideas for how this should be implemented, to the point
 where the definitions of "this" are different depending on the developer
 and the use cases they were considering.

 > We need to see both demand and innovation, and preferably some
 consensus, before even considering this. Give it a year, I imagine that
 will evolve, but being ahead of one's time is not always a good thing.

 That's all fair.
