Paolo, imo decision of looking into this option for 2.0 vs 2.1 should be
primarily driven by quality. If qgis can offer better  quality in vector
functions by maintaining the two mechanism for 2.0 then it should be
deferred to 2.1. If the opposite is true, then might be worth for Victor to
weight in and state whether such proposal can be achieved for 2.0.
