OK. I am just a bit dubious about starting a large chunk of work, only to be
told later "we're not going to commit this, the consensus here is we don't
want to do it this way because X / Y / Z"

Incidentally, do we have a current status on this?

This looks like a pre-requisite for turning the base system into packages.
