It wasn't really that I was feeling ignored (OK, put this as a tribute to the 
speed at which questions are usually answered:-), more that I thought the 
discussion might be more useful/suited here as it's about a module under 
development.  Again, sorry for the double post.

I'll take a look and see what I can do.

I guess it's tricky because there are only a limited number of people who can 
review the code, so it must be difficult to set definite time targets.  But it 
could be nice to have e.g. a priority wish list so that we can see what kinds of 
contributions would be most useful/welcome.
