Good to see a new face in here...
We did some tests for Macintosh-Support of magnets, and they are definitely on the ToDo-List (I only supplied the compiling-machine and served as a kind of remote-keyboard-input-method
(And did some browsing of the Source-Code...) ).
Following information from Gregor, they will definitely be integrated, but not in the next release (else it would be postponed again, and I assume nobody wants that, especially not with the new features in there... no, I won't say more
)
