I believe Sergey wants to integrate tightly with IDEA so that it will

serve as a stepping-stone for people to start using MPS for real

projects. I'm imagining, for example, being able to edit MPS models

inside IDEA. However, MPS will definitely evolve into a stand-alone

platform. Who knows, maybe one day you will have an IDEA plugin for MPS

instead of the other way around.
