Is it really necessary to

Is it really necessary to replace CINT dictionary with cling? I spent many years fighting with incomplete or sometimes wrong implementation of C/C++ by CINT. I am highly skeptical if we need another HEP developed compiler. Can we stick to industry standards? For example, ATLAS now uses gcc xml with reflex for dictionary and it works great, no more obscure CINT errors. Similarly, we can use python for macros and as an interactive interpreter. I really think that extending PyROOT capability would be extremely useful. Just my two cents.
