Thanks ;-)
I agree.

I'm working off trunk because it is trunk.

I'd assumed that the rewrite branch was a single-purpose branch to
rewrite something, and that it would be merged back when it is stable.

Is it stable?

Is there any documentation on what the plans are for the rewrite branch?
Is there a roadmap to finish it?

Is see now that the rewrite branch has more unit tests, but more are needed.

Is there a need to create a backwards compatibility layer?
Or, is everyone except me using the rewrite branch? ;-)
