Note that my branch was a pretty significant change in the 
implementation (I switched to using a schema extender, in part to 
support the use of the product with LinguaPlone). I didn't have the time 
or energy to push for it to be merged to trunk, so I'm not sure if the 
package maintainers were aware of my branch, and I believe some 
diverging work has been done on trunk since I made the branch...but I 
haven't really paid close attention and don't know the current 
status...sorry.
