A side, "historical", for lack of a better adjective, remark: having
followed with great attention most of the v3 work during the last years,
I find "weird" your characterization of those issues as "implementing
TR1 or not". I mean, most of those library bits and design choices
**pre** dates TR1, as far as I know.

That said, of course I agree that now we have to figure out whether
implementing or not those parts, consistently. Actually, a couple of
weeks ago I started closely studying Chapter 8, then got distracted:
thanks for taking the occasion to discuss those topics a bit!

Paolo.
