FWIW, I tried a clean new from the group up reimplementation of
SfxItemset once in cws new_itemsets:

 
http://hg.services.openoffice.org/cws/new_itemsets/file/924a55dab4dc/svl/inc/svl/itemset.hxx
 
http://hg.services.openoffice.org/cws/new_itemsets/file/924a55dab4dc/svl/source/items/itemset.cxx

the intention was to be able to optimize on the code (with seemed to be
impossible with the bit-rotten old one) as SfxItemsets pose a major
part of the load/save-instructions. I never got to integrate that cws,
as its performance currently is just on par with the old implementation
(IIRC, ~8% faster on Linux, but a bit slower on Windows). I still
think it would be a much better base for optimization and finetuning
than the current codebase, let alone be more readable (for example it
is doing the same thing in half the LOC).

Maybe somebody is interested in integrating the replacement Itemset? I
added an EasyHack for it:
 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39849
Although that is a truely challenging task, it would also be most
rewarding.

Best,

Bjoern
