Hacky workaround and not a proper "fix" (I still notice it, I dont think 
people who I demo Myth for does, but I do).

Cool, so is there a timeline for this, will the great big migration take 
place in between 0.17 and 0.18 or when? Also, what are the current 
release plans for 0.17 (any special features that need to be done before 
release, or is it time-based or is it random etc)?
