Does this leave room to use them *if* they are available? Not saying
that this patch set must support them, but neither would like to
disclude them from unforseeable future.

I have to admit my knowledge is limited here. I'm not sure how widely is 23
used by the pre-existing user space in the wild.

What are the consumer use cases anyway? Why wouldn't locality based
solution make sense to those use cases where this makes sense.

Finally, where does hibernate make sense? :-)

This comes more down to on how lay out the requirements.
