I think what he's saying is that the functionality you desire is in OOEU,
and if we can get consensus amongst Euphoria users, it would be relatively
easy to add it to the primary Euphoria distribution.

I strongly disagree. It's so advanced it's simple. :)

I think your interpretation is skewed... I think it's more of, "Okay, we've
got this functionality in these packages, is it something you think would
work?"

I think it's important, also, to nail down the syntax, which hasn't been done.
Many options have been suggested. Should we vote on it or what?

I don't know if that's true. Let us get clarification: Rob, will any
requested changes need approval from you, even if there's community
consensus?
