The discussion in that thread is causing people confusion (eg regarding
an obsolete approach to config and CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE). Please discontinue
the discussion there. My branch is the way forward.

I extended my branch to contain not only test and documentation but also
an implementation and a generated file from my computer, so that you can
read it/try it and give feedback. Obviously the branch needs to be
broken up into multiple commits, but that something to do when this is
not a prototype anymore. We are still in a design discussion.

I pushed the implementation only because I know you guys won't discuss
the design of the feature on its own and you want to have an
implementation asap. However, this is still a design discussion, and all
of the questions in my previous mail are still valid.

Thanks,

Steve.
