yes, but... the imperfect way was used quite successfully with piuparts for a 
long time ;-)

me too, absolutly.

Yet I also can only imagine Dave's frustration trying to get his work in and 
recognized, so far this hasn''t happen for this feature, and for quite a long 
time. And I'd like Dave to stay motivated and contributing, and I like the new 
feature also.

So I'm a bit torn, (currently) leaning towards releasing 0.50 soon (now?) and 
then starting 0.51 with the merge of dave/sort-issues-by-rdep - or do you 
think thats premature?


cheers,
	Holger
