maybe i'm being dense, but i don't see how merging the code into the CMF 
core improves this.  if i'm understanding this correctly, you wouldn't 
be increasing the number of supported combinations at all; you'd just 
have expanded one of the Z2.8 unsupported pieces from a single feature 
(menu -> action bridging) to the entirety of CMF 1.6.

anyway, it's moot, since you've agreed to keep it a separate product for 
now.  thank you.  CMF 2.0 will see all of this converge.
