That is *exactly* why a proposal should be backed with a use 
case. The people implementing them are *also* volunteers. Their 
time is just as valuable. Putting in personal effort reduces the 
burden of the implementors, and increases the chances of said 
proposal to go through (or at this point even be considered 
seriously).

Really, all I'm seeing is "I have this proposal; fuck you if you 
don't think it's good, I don't have any time to waste to explain 
it to you"... Well, in that case, OK. I don't have time to 
consider it either. Moving on.
