Well, some thought went in to making the two behave properly in the
absence of an update of the other. This was the primary reason for the
re-spin. That part of the process is working, since it was Steve's
feedback that provoked the respin.
The issues isn't so much in making the different bits behave under
different circumstances - they need to do that period - the issue is
that I don't want to include new functionality in the kernel that
doesn't have a user (or one on the horizon).
