We'll do our best, but let me remind you that during the "OM system
level crisis" ;) the kernel was being frozen for a couple of months
and no one dared to touch it. Hence OpenEmbedded was the best place to
add patches that actually improve the user experience of our existing
customers.

I'm almost sure this situation will never arise again.
