That would be fantastic!

A bit OT, but if plans are afoot for a 1.6 release maybe the 'core  
group' that meets at NC could start drawing up a list of ideas/plans  
towards that release, even if it is still a ways off.  A roadmap of  
sorts so the community knows where to put forth the majority of their  
effort and focus.
