Agree. But please also understand that "Great thinking guys!" does not 
really motivate people that give most of their free time to the project 
instead of spending it somewhere else. That was the reason of my email, not 
the feature request itself - that is, in opposite, very important think - a 
feedback by project users.

As to your suggestion, please check first that clients can multicast 
arbitrary Java objects in the group. So your proposal, should allow this use 
(i.e. it should not require clients to implement a platform-neutral object 
externalization), but also have a possibility for a platform-neutral message 
passing to enable the multi-platform group communication. Formalizing 
internal message format is not so hard (though probably boring) compared to 
finding the most elegant solution of the above mentioned problem.
