[pp.int.general] Proposal

[Patrick Maechler v/o Valio]

Obviously Thunderbird dislikes me today. I wasn't finished with that
mail yet :)

1. I wanted to send that mail from this account
2. I wanted to mention that coretx supports this. Also Jurgen is ok with
that, if I can really take it.

cheers
Patrick
