i always thought that was the entire reason we had cssu-s and cssu-t. thumb support has great potential as demonstrated here, REing closed source components can lead to both stability and and performance increases. i really don't see the problem with adding features along the way.

i know we recently had the whole debate over the point of kernel-cssu and kernel-power, one for stable, one for testing features. i know we have cssu-devel for packages not yet in cssu-t, but maybe its time for a new branch. i mean, what happens when the there's hardly any bugs left, does development just stagnate?

with the work on glib, glibc, thumb, kernel battery charging being a little more involved than just recompiling existing versions with a patch, maybe they would be better positioned for something like a 5.1/cssu2 release.
