I see, now it makes sense :)

I think it doesn't need to be perfect

You know what? Me too, haha

take care

I asked Hans off-list about reorganizing the cyclone source tree in the
svn repositry. I thought it could use some maintenance, but wasn't sure
it was a good idea.

Having signal inlets, means it works with control messages too. So it
won't break compatibility, IMHO. I think it doesn't need to be perfect,
as long as it close enough and usable too.
