Thanks for your quick and clear answer :)

So now if I understand correctly the situation, this bug report is a bit
stuck. Either we have a 1.0 released soon enough or it looks quite
complicated to get it working with 0.7.3 and, reading you, I assume we
are not going to see a 0.7.4 released (on git the 0.7 branch looks
indeed quite dead).
Anyway, thanks again for the answer and if you have any news, I'll be
happy to get the update :)
