This isn't a project for the future, it is a 9.3-based project that
will be in production as soon as it is finished and tested.  Weeks,
not months or years.  Using that type of bleeding edge stuff in
production is the sort of thing an organization only does if they have
an Adrian Chadd on staff who intimately understands every detail of
it, someone who can shepherd use of it and who can basically guarantee
that any problems that come up can be handled very quickly as their #1
drop-everything priority.  That's not the case here.
