I think the plan is sensible.

I still need to finish documenting things, and tying up loose ends. I'm
especially concerned about ABI and future compatibility. But this can be
done in vm or master.

If we do this, the resulting "product" should have "deprecated"
somewhere in its name. You wouldn't want people mistaking it for
"high-level".
My personal opinion is that we should move this stuff to C files that
the user can include in her own project, and distribute those C files
somewhere. But perhaps this is not feasible.

Yay! :-)
