Thank you for this suggestion. This project¹ seems pretty serious and
points to actual research (that I didn't read yet). That's confidence
inspiring. We'll need to discuss about the usability trade-off though.
May you please get back to us once this project is not marked as
experimental anymore and the most severe issues (e.g. #12²) are fixed?
