+1. that's the easy way. That would be a shoot in the foot with cannon. Pretty
much as the experience of kicking in the ass your customers. Not an attitude to
talk well about.

Absolutely and the core dev team should not feel pressure about this. I bet it
can be made as a Seaside add on that any other framework familiarized developer
can do and be kind enough to share under a MIT kind of license.
