I think it is a very valid excuse, I always enjoy to read your writings, but
of course you must take care of your life outside the list (even if it makes
the list a little bit more boring ;)), hope you will feel better soon.

Take your time. I am working on some multi page form handling stuff that
uses pipe-aware selection and some other new components, hopefully these
things will illustrate a little bit better why I think pipe-aware selection
is an important addition to Cocoon that makes input handling more elegant.

I would also like to make clear that my implementation doesn't change any
interfaces and doesn't cost anything extra if you don't use pipe-aware
selectors (ok, one extra test if the pipe-aware interface is implemented for
the selector, but that should be neglible in the overall context).
