Agreed.

I was just trying to provoke a reaction.

All the features mentioned by various people should go into the latest
compiler.  I also intend to back port any MLDS and IL backend
improvements and realease minor minor point releases 0.9.3.x with these
improvements because that is what MC are interested in.

I would like to include the stream stuff, but don't think that it has
been used enough to warrant inclusion in the std library, maybe it
should go into extras.
