Crazy stuff, you're saying :D
The branch is routinely tested: I do test it before each submission,
and I will pass it by the entire build farm before merge. I wish not
to break the build as much as you do.

You perfectly got my motivation.

This should be the last cherry picked off stringng, unless by chance
the API you are drafting for a tokenizer substantially overlap the
Tokenizer I have implemented in the stringng branch. If that happens,
I can try to adapt the current code to the new API. If it doesn't,
that code will be abandoned and the stringng branch closed.
I hope it will never happen again that a feature-branch lives as long
as this one has.
