Much of *code* that you are are screaming for *EXISTS* in FreeBSD today, and guess what, it doesn't work very well, because of all the problems I've pointed out. I wrote the code, so there's no need for roadmaps and/or long discussions about the merits of it. The basic problem that Warner was discussing is a 'fact of life', and fixing it to never occur is simply not possible, and making it better than it already is implies a huge overhead.
