Ok. Dalibor also gave a little positive feedback on IRC. So I'll prepare
this stuff and check it in after the next release, unless there comes a
big NO in the meantime. Also, I am going to adjust the existing native

should). And of course I will work on getting the target native layer
into a good shape so it isn't so much a PITA...
