Also not what I meant. I agree that individual ports/packages should proceed at
their own paces.

Bottom line, this really cannot be anywhere near rushed and has to be thought
through holistically, even though there exist prospective ports that need the
framework. The self-bootstrapping bit is merely an example of required
flexibility in the framework (which does not exist in this WIP), in their case
to eliminate circular dependencies. I updated the wiki page to clarify on some
design goals that need met.
