A long time ago when the K1 code base was built, I wanted to get EB and GDao into kernel for just those reasons. At the time Aaron was keen to develop them separately and not be restricted by the kernel release cycles. Had they gone it, it would have been a lot easier to come up with a more useful structure for developers. At the time the result was workable, gave Aaron the control he wanted, but less than perfect (IMHO).

Just my 2p, watching from afar.
