i'm in no way telling that LDC and GDC authors doing something wrong.
i'm just admitting the fact. i'll be very happy if GDC will be on par

so switching to new version will not take month of manwork.

it seems to me that with introducing visitors everywhere future frontend
code will be easier to integrate.
