Yes, I have; and yes, it helps.  

What I was hoping to do, though, as well, was come up with the list
of facilities that developers of these various systems say they need. 
I don't expect this will happen quickly (which is why I figured it
needed a project -- if I could do in in six weeks, then we wouldn't
need a mailing list and the like).  But it seemed to me that, with so
many projects on the go, getting a list together of what the
developers of those systems say they need would be the obvious way to
define, later, what hooks, if any, are needed in the core system.
