We agree then.

That's my view as well.  So what's missing perhaps is that we close this
bug and open another bug, as was Stefan Kangas' suggestion, to track the
integration work.  WDYT?  Or maybe we should just leave this bug as that
record, since it's where all the investigation done so far is
registered anyway.
