Sure, makes sense. Feel free to send some patches, otherwise I can have a go at it
when I have the time. The stuff that I already implemented mostly served my own development
needs, for sure there are things missing for other areas of the system.

Another thing that I would like to add is to have a simple way to switch between
multiple fake "profiles" (e.g. different PDM setups sizes, tiny, medium, huge) so
that it is easier to do performance testing in a standardized way. Already
talked to Thomas about this, he provided me some of the variables for these profiles (e.g.
number of remotes, guests per remote, etc.) - but haven't had the time yet to integrate that.
