I'm sorry. But it seems to me you have missed something.
In the last mail i have explain that modular structure of
mc would be preferable. So that means everybody who needs
some features would be able to add it without rewriting of mc.
Exactly in this way i have compared mc with XYZ aka FAR.
MC itself should be much smaller and provide most only
plugin interface for other modules in the way that it will
be possible to change the behavior by default for evereyone.
Now mc is thing in itself and most of people would
write a new file manager than try to grow mc community.

Gruss,
