Comment(by MattyRob):

 @Demetris,

 Not only are we rehashing an old topic, we are having a one sided debate
 about how bad this idea is (again) but closing the ticket it a big no-no
 unless you are a core developer who's been nowhere near the ticket since
 it opened.

 D-de-B hits the nail on the head - WordPress is driven by the thoughts of
 the core devs without any great deal of attention being paid to regular
 users and plugin authors. I doubt this will ever change so rather than
 ticket checking I'll be looking for a WordPress alternative for the next
 few weeks instead!
