Sorry I come to this very late but: If it is not stable yet, it would probably be a good idea to make it a privatelib, so even if we end up shipping a release with the lib before considered stable we are safe updating it? It won't prevent any usage one can imagine in base. The private flag can be dropped once it is considered stable Best regards, Bapt
