I don't think a small future ACLE builtin is on the same league as a whole new 
back-end. :)

Nor I think that having this when the docs are public, rather than now, will 
affect users in any way.

It's been our stance for a long time to require docs to approve changes, 
however small. I don't want to relax that which I think is a good constraint, 
not for such a seemly irrelevant issue.

I also doubt this will be the only addition in the new ACLE, so why not release 
the document, and then submit all changes then?

Or, maybe I am mistaken, and this is really that important... is it?

cheers,
