I think everyone agrees that the right solution is to get
it into the elilo tree, but that might take awhile,
it will be even longer (maybe years) before an updated
elilo starts appearing in distributions, and in the
meantime the elilo tree will be only source so every
user and developer will need to fetch and build their
own copy of the updated elilo.

We need a solution for the short- and mid-term that is
easy for users.
