OK looks like were nearly ready for IO 1.4 release - theres a minor
issue to resolve on IO-77[1] so that just leaves IO-137[2] to decide
whether we're going to do anything about for 1.4 or move it to
post-1.4 - Henri and Jukka expressed interest on IO-137 - do you guys
want to / have time to look at this?
