rob: I think strk meant that you ignored references in your reply to his e-mail.

We're not asking you to change what you're coding. We're asking you to
talk about it. What is your plan/idea for supporting references?
Please share your ideas. It may effect our choice of whether to use
your code or not. Also, there's a lot of bright minds on this list, we
may have further ideas for you.
