   I'd written actual prototypes to be concrete.  I realized somebody
   who missed the point might fixate on two strange new routines, so I'd
   written TBD to try to discourage discussion of the API.  And *still*
   nitpicking from the peanut gallery.  Good grief!

if you don't have a concrete proposal, what is the point of the
above email?  i'm not asking about the API, but if you don't
know what it is yet, ...?

how about you talk about what you want to do?
