It depends. In its current form this is a proof-of-concept, and it would definitely need some TLC to be ready for prime time. Equally, getting more people involved would be helpful, but most contributors are hesitant to get involved in something like this due to the Phi/Qt5 efforts, which could quickly make this whole thing obsolete. | It depends.

We'll then see whether people find it more widely useful etc. and whether FG more generally relies on it for fixing such bugs/issues or not.<ref>{{cite web | |||
