Is it really here _now_? Yes, web2c has it. But what about the
non-web2c implementations (BaKoMa?) and the commercial
distributors? None of the commercials seem to offer eTeX.

Do you propose to make LaTeX eTeX-aware (i.e. use it's features
when running eTeX and program without them in TeX [which would
double the developement and maintenance]) or should it focus
exclusively on eTeX?
