KDL Tree modifications

Hi to all,
I am Silvio Traversaro, and I am currently evaluating the use of the KDL
library for building some software related to inertial parameters
identification. In the past months in the orocos mailing list future
changes to KDL structures, in particular to KDL::Tree, were mentioned (for
example in [1] or [2]). At this date, as far as I know no of the mentioned
changes where commited on KDL git repo [3].
I wanted to ask (to avoid duplicating your work, for example for
TreeIdSolver) if these changes are going to be released soon or not.
Thank you in advance for any reply.

I pushed the changes to the kinfam_refactored branch
(since I had to cherry pick its a bunch of not so nice commits :( )
at the same time, I would like to ask the devs for approval and merging it into the master, probably there is need for a new release number...
