Is this something that will be addressed in cfengine 3?

Alternatively, it sometimes seems strange that cfexecd exists at all:
why not fold the mail handling (and daemon mode scheduling functions) of
cfexecd into cfagent?

Cron works fine for many, probably even most, situations, but having to
choose between mail handling (by scheduling cfexecd) and the ability to
pass class options to cfagent (by scheduling cfagent), seems like an
unnecessary trade-off.
