Not sure that is actually a valid reason for ruling it out :-)

I don't have any real preference as to which package you use as I have
not been involved with development of this tool.
However as a maintainer of at least ~40 packages that use it please
make sure whatever you are looking todo is backwards compatible - I
don't think we want to have to update every package that uses m-d-h to
use a new set of CLI options/new style.
Looking forward to seeing what improvements you are going to make.
Cheers
James
