Yes, I think we would..  I think the key thing is getting all the
functionality working so we can "commit" to g2.  Then once we have it
all "working" we can merge back into HEAD and then work on upgrading
the other widgets.

IMHO once we have a "WORKING" g2 port we can merge into HEAD, and I
think that would alleviate Jon's concerns about "committing to a g2
release".

I just ran it and it looks like none of the business features are in
there at all (or the menu plugin code doesn't work).   However I must
admit the UI looks pretty slick so far :)
