I really hope mzanetti and you see eye to eye on improvements. I'd hate to see good stuff linger in branches without getting merged.

That said, I think it's important to keep Eden compatibility, since most users don't follow the bleeding edge. I assume the RPC interface allows you to query the version of the remote XBMC instance (which in turn could gracefully disable certain UI parts/select code paths if a particular version is detected)? Alternatively, the Frodo specific patches could be collected into a xbmcremote-next branch. This of course has a slightly different maintenance profile, but makes the changes less invasive on the 'stable' branch..
