I'm not too familiar with all the problems of the old version, but I
think most of the issues were things that actually resulted from
having to call avrdude as an external program.

That's one option, and not an unlikely one. :)

That's not so likely to happen, if you think about it.  (It's the way
it works now, btw.)  As the main advantage will be there's no external
command call anymore, it won't be that easy to synthesize a possible
command for the current action all the time.

If you're interested, perhaps we can arrange for a meeting with
Jörg while you're going to be here.
