This patch still needs a lot of work before it's anywhere close to
committable. I agree with Simon that it is preferrable to clean it up
to make it committable *without* the burden of extra features. If
Boxuan continues to add more features, it will be end-of-release before
it is possible to think about committing it.
It seems better to have merge-no-inheritance in 9.1 than nothing. If we
can get the inheritance case working for 9.1, that's even better, but I
don't think it needs to be a hard requirement.
