Yes,

I pondered moving that way at that time, and decided for a basic
serialization in multipath(8) and wait after I release 0.4.6 to begin
that merging work into the daemon.

We'll need to synchronize with Mike, who will need structural changed
too.

Let me know when you have something ready for me to read.
I'd prefer we do it one keyword at a time, for my brain's sake.

Well I guess I'll release 0.4.6 real soon now :/
