Want my opinion ? Well, I just noticed that when it is someone else (meaning
not you) who is involved in a proposal, you tend to suggest very often that
the proposed package should be integrated into another one that already
exists. For an example, see Mail_Imap...
Now, when you are the closest target to a package proposal (Image_Graph vs
Structure_Graph) you start by saying both packages should not be
integrated...
So my opinion is that your behavior is a little unfair and next time you
suggest two packages should be integrated, think twice because it might
happen to you as well !
