Well, a review of the patch and a bit of work in the optimiser.
However, I think the patch will have bitrotted beyond any use by now.
It touched many of the areas the operator families stuff touched, for

I beleive it is being reimplemented as a GSoc project, that's probably
a better approach. Should probably just delete the page from the wiki
altogether.

Have a nice day,
