Even if I like your idea and it looks theoretically the right thing to
do, I'm not sure we want it in practice if it adds complexity to CFS.

I personally never noticed this kind of interference from CFS, but, at
the same time, for RT we usually like more to be safe than sorry.
However, since this doesn't seem to be bullet-proof (as you also say), I
guess it all boils down again to complexity vs. practical benefits.

Best,

Juri
