that UI proposal was done a while ago, actually. i assumed you were working 
together and instead decided on this. it turns out that we have had two people 
working independently on this even though both knew the other was doing 
something. let's see if we can't bring it back together.

i appreciate that you've done some code and work on this, but this mockup was 
shown around and as far as i know you were also aware of it?

while it's not fun to be blocked by waiting for others, i don't think the 
answer is "well, i've got this here, so that's what we'll use". certainly code 
written trumps no code written, but let's not be inflexible about it either.

i'd like to see Riccardo's proposal on this list, we can discuss the benefits 
or lack thereof of it, see who is willing to actually write code for it (if 
anyone) and move on from there.
