I loved m_r for quite a while before dropping it because of huge amount of magic and difficulty of the underlying code.

a super simple/transparent replacement would be great.

From what I gather hampton's suggestion isn't for a transparent replacement, but some simple filters and helpers that get created for you. ala

This discussion didn't really seem to reach a conclusion, hampton do you have a patch ready to go for this? I think that the pastie above is a good start for experimentation and something we should consider including for the 2.2 release.

Koz, did you have a look at michael bleigh's plugin? That looks to me like quite a nice version of what Hampton was talking about.

I was actually talking about this: http://github.com/mbleigh/fetches/tree/master

which looks like it was inspired by that other one you posted. definitely cool
