Hi Baruch,
my involvement with this platform is limited to just the Clearfog Base 
because that's what we're using internally. I therefore cannot really 
comment on the patch.

That said, I think that this module vs. built-in is something which can go 
to the commit message.

With kind regards,
Jan
