fwiw we were talking about having some sort of UMM overlay/add-on on
top of base filesystem, which added updated kernel, opensrc xorg
driver, and other UMM related bits..

I assume it will take a few months, I think, to get it all working
together and to same stability/performance/functionality levels as old
stuff, hence the add-on approach.  Well, maybe this is an
over-paranoid view, but there are enough things changing that I
wouldn't assume that it will come out of the oven fully baked the
first go
