That's really all I ask.

To be clear, I don't intend to work on this unless/until NWI gets going. 
But if/when it does, I'm going to start pushing ;-).

(There will of course be the huge advantage that NWI will do all the 
tab-management stuff, so it should be fairly trivial to drop to 
process-per-tab mode. You'll just be missing IPC until that gets 
implemented, otherwise it should be a matter mostly of ripping out TDI 
code.)

Yeah, I know. Par for the course. I hate the American government.
Actually, I was talking about X.org...
