are those modules about to merged into the kernel? The current intent infrastructure isn't fulfilling what it should do well, and from what I've seen on the discussions it sounds that the best way forward is to undo the current implementation and then roll out one which caters to the needs of the existing users better.
As external module, you have little say so far simply because your usage isn't visible. I'd urge you to quickly submit your code so that the things you need from this are better visible to the people who are thinking and working on the redesign.

I assume we're talking about an open source product, or at least kernel component, here?
