Not at all ...

Yes, that GUI part should be moved, too.

Sounds perfectly fine to me.

Agreed.

I am currently uploading a new version to unstable. Please don't forget
to pull when you implement it. The next upload will then contain the
split going to *experimental* since it takes a long time.

After it has been accepted, we again upload to unstable with the split

Thanks

Norbert
