Good points - in retrospect was too hasty with that stable. I don't plan
on backward compatibility being broken (i.e. existing API won't change)
but further features may be added.
Turns out, while writing more unit tests, that I've done things Microsoft
style - released a beta as stable and now finding bugs (nothing too
critical thankfully).
Unless anyone would like me to remove this release, will make another
release in the next day or two, drop the status to beta and move you to
helper.
