All which use backend_tuples or is unreachable at least.
I'm sorry I don't have a list. It is only my ideas based on
what I see through patching. I also try to start cleaning code
and I always stop becouse I go to updateable cursor implementation
or DRIVER_CURSOR or something similar.

I'm sorry I'm unable to translate "develop in tip".
I think that we use current stable version as start point for
development branch. I don't think we could share code between this
two branches. It doesn't lead to better (readable) code.

Yes. I'm planning this mainly for me (maybe someone join me/us).
