What happened to the experiment of having slab pages on the (in)active lists and letting them be free'd that way? Didn't somebody already do that? Ed Tomlinson and Craig Kulesa?
That's still something I'd like to try, although that's obviously 2.7.x material, so not useful for rigth now.
Or did the experiment just never work out well?
