Based on discussions from last month, the general agreement was to use CM
private data in place of ATS. Once that's done, I don't see a need for ib_at.
(Also, put simply, I don't believe that ATS can work.) I think that a
combination of what Roland, including his original API design, and Yaron
proposed is the right direction to go.
