Yes, that's a good idea. It certainly can't go directly in the  
strictly-maintenance 1.5 branch. +1 from me for 1.6 then.

Rob, without wanting to open a Pandora's box, is Generic Setup the  
only thing you're really craving or are there other low-hanging fruit  
that could be dealt with *without* moving too far off the 1.5 code  
base? And what is the timeframe for Plone 2.2 (I assume that's the  
release you want this for)?

Stabilized meaning moved from alpha to beta or the final? I'm trying  
to see how far the different schedules (Plone 2.2 and a stabilized  
GenericSetup) can be made to match up.
