I see that you posted the source a few days ago.  That's great news.
I'll have a look and see what it would take to make this happen.

That depends on what you think the underlying issue is.  I assume -
correct me if I'm wrong - that your belief is that underresourcing
within Sun is that issue.  Unlike some people, I don't feel Sun has
any obligation at all to resource this work.  Assigning and paying two
engineers to work on it is a gift, one for which we should all be
thankful and appreciative.  The real issue I had was lack of ability
for anyone not employed by Sun to contribute; I'm hopeful that we'll
see others getting R/W access and fixing some of these problems soon.
