An infinity of potentially 'worthwhile projects' exist ... but
CentOS is about being a strict rebuild, with trademark and
branding fixups. To the extent THIS project starts getting
into the back porting, we have people start to relying on such
'out of scope' efforts .... and then we 'draw fire' for not
meeting someone's need or expectations beyond being a strict
rebuild.
I don't see that we at CentOS should be doing that
