My inclination is not to. We don't really know where we are going with storage layer reworks in the near future, and we might end up changing this in other ways. We might find ourselves needing this kind of abstraction again. I don't think this means we need to follow it completely in new code, since it's already broken in other places, but let's not destroy it completely just yet. > BTW I've run now long stress tests with the patch applied and see no new > issues, even when indexes are dropped and recreated concurrently (includes > my patch to fix CIC bug in the master though).
