Indeed, I thought about doing this last night, but decided to get some
sleep instead :-) Here is the cleaned up JIRA roadmap, which agrees
with above:

I've created a new version called "Later" for good ideas that won't
get on the immediate roadmap without complete tested patches. JEXL-52
is one example.

Another "Later" IMO.

Definitely 2.0.

I think theres value to that, which means we need to be very sure
thats the interface we want (or even go to an abstract class for
extensibility I think). Set to 2.0.

Well, very subjective IMO. Generally try to fix as many as possible
and make code consistent in most syntactic and style respects.
Thanks for the triage.
