There's no point in commenting the rest of your message.
I was just trying to be nice to JOSM and plugin developers, but you're basically
saying that it is OK to rewrite the core heavily and break plugins if it serves
the purpose. Why I don't like such an approach, JOSM is not my project and
I'm only trying to improve it to better cover my needs.
So far all the changes I have in my sleeve (already coded) are nonintrusive,
but I think of few optimizations that would need update of unrelated parts,
and providing real scalability into JOSM would certainly require heavy
restructuralization, including wrapping some fields or some other measure
to cover external changes.

I just want to know whether such changes will be accepted.
