real quick too than: we're going to deal with it. All headers should be 
self-contained but OTOH we want to reduce dependencies (to minimise 
compilation time). Currently not all headers are self-contained and we 
are going to resolve that situation but we *need to take our time* ;-) 
to do it properly.
