    N'ack. As I mentioned in the last email, this really isn't okay, and
    mostly defeats the purpose of Zinc in the first place, adding
    complexity in a discombobulated half-baked way. Your proposal seems to
    be the worst of all worlds. Having talked to lots of people about the
    design of Zinc at this point to very positive reception, I'm going to
    move forward with submitting v9, once I rebase with the required
    changes for Eric's latest merge.
