It is "approved" (inasmuch as there is an approval process). The
implementation has been done in full view of everyone in #dbix-class
and with a lot of guidance from me and ribasushi.

Work with the author(s) to get it into a shape that's releasable. I've
got some pie-in-the-sky ideas of "One tree module to rule them all"
that you might be interested in. I am ENOTIME because I'm doing crazy
plugin-y things with DBM::Deep.
