It is fine to say when you're too busy, you know. Remember I can't tell
the difference between you being overloaded and you just remaining in
disagreement.
I don't mind waiting for stuff per se, this is after all a volunteer
project. I had assumed the argument petered out simply due to
fundamental disagreement ...

(I'd thought my descriptions of what goes wrong where would have made
this clear, oversight of mine I suppose)
I made two throw-away prototypes before my current tree, trying a
variety of weird and wacky layouts. (Not to say that some stuff in my
3rd tree can't be done better of course)
Oh, btw, when you suggest something I usually do try it out, since
you're normally righter than me ...

you've said it's simply livelock instead, then it can certainly wait.
