Yes, forgot to mention that, sorry.
So the question is whether we want to keep RTL inliner for longer, when
we plan to replace it even when it has noticeable maintenance cost, or
whether we want to invest the time to function-at-a-timeizing rest of
frontends.
I am not sure what other frontends are in existence that does matter
(pascal?) but it will be definitly a lot of work.
