Note also that I disagree that if Fruit will become the best it will prove the
superiority of open source.

It can only prove the superiority of Fabien relative to other programmers.

I have more ideas that may help fruit or may not help fruit but I decided to
share only an idea that is used by other programs and not by fruit(partial
extensions)

I am sure that Fabien knows about that idea of partial extensions and maybe it
is one of the bugs that he ask people to fix.
