I know, I've seen it a lot as well. Like I said, the patch isn't bad,
we've just seen some issues and would like to resolve those before
exposing it to the user. Until then, we'd rather not break Gnome-CD for
the users for who it works right now.

I'm not sure if 2.8.1 is allowed (is this part of the feature freeze?).
If it is, and this is possible schedule-wise, we'll definately try it.
Just not 2.8.0.

putting this in 2.8.0 is just asking for bad reviews... ]
