While I agree with you in principle, I think in this specific case certain features need to be baked in so that we can have a stable API as soon as possible.  This includes stuff like JPA, distributed executors, etc.  So there will always be a tradeoff on where most focus is.

It still is great to have your feedback though, I know I plan to spend a few cycles looking at them for the sake of robustness in coming weeks/months.

Cheers
