Well, the biggest question in my mind is: are you willing to contribute
the patches back?

It's unclear if any of them break backwards compatability (which we
always strive for), but certainly many of them would not.

Well, there's one issue: lots of new code means bigger applications and
we do strive to be small to run on small devices.  That being said, the
sliding definition of "small" has certainly increased in size over time
with the continued increase of storage/memory availability in even the
smallest devices.
