Samba has many conflicting requirements from the major stakeholders.
I doubt there is any one person who these stakeholders will agree
on to rule their priorities 'in' or 'out' of a specific release, so
I don't think this idea will work.

I think it's a good topic to discuss at a Samba Team meeting @ XP
though !
