I understand :)

But I'm going to take the most cautious approach. It's quite cumbersome 
to have the same tree shared between several projects, and I certainly 
don't want to disrupt somebody's work. So, if there's at least one voice 
against a change, I won't merge it into the main tree.

All changes, big or small, are public, so whoever wants to use them, can 
do so any time.
