Hi Christian,

great summary. I think the 1) and 2) is the general understanding.

To 1) Some thoughts on the design should go into it, but I would be 
happy if it would be coded out of a certainneed. This means, people 
start on 2), and find out that they do the same things over and over 
again. Then it should go into 1).
