Have you heard anything from the design team yet? We've been waiting for
help on this bug for ages until we got only a generic design document, so I
would really vote for simply merging the tutorial. The screenshots I've
seen looked awesome and I guess it will take a while for us to get another
reply.

Some information regarding this that might be interesting: Support for
doing this has just been added to the platform for OTA-10 and unconfined
applications. Confined ones (which the terminal is not) will have to wait
until OTA-10.
