Oops, completely forgot about that one.  We had already decided to merge it
into the trunk (the reason at the time was to get it better tested), but
it looks like noone did it.

Is the maintainer of that branch somewhere?  I think it'd be fair to merge
it in, but only if it's currently considered "fine" by the few people who
tested it and if the maintainer is around so he can deal with the
bug reports.
