Then perhaps I wasn't being clear, and I think we are saying the same
thing.

That is not what I am saying.  What I am saying actually is that these
usage that _need_ to involve plumbing is not "advanced", but merely
showing weakness of the current Porcelain.  Fixing that would allow us
move further away from having to resort to plumbing in our daily
workflow.

Perhaps our Porcelains already passed that point, in which case you do not
have to touch the plumbing commands 99% of time during the day and you do
not have to teach new people plumbing at all.  I am agreeing that it would
be a worthy goal to aim for -- I do not however think we are there yet.
