I completely agree with all you said Oliver. Very well written. It
should be set in stone.

Yes please, this would be great. Maybe after some time people will see
it just works it can be reconsidered to have it as another platform.
This will simplify merges a lot.

Anyway, I uploaded sources to github. Here is the PR of all my changes
so far to be able to build that 300 packages (build stack + good base
we need to build our dockers).
- https://github.com/koldat/alpine/pull/1
- It is based on 3.16 branch
- I will work with Jakub to upload first compiled binaries so when you
are interested you can just "apk add" it to some root.
- When base is installed abuild works as usual for most packages.
- I have docker builder as well so one can easily compile/test musl vs
glibc without any external dependencies (ok only docker is needed).
