I'll take it.. as long as it comes out of the box that way and works. 3rd party forum integrations are otherwise ugly from an end user standpoint and not something I want to mess with :)
I've seen some good integrations of PunBB and phpBB in my time. smile4sammy isn't an example of a good developer (and neither was his "integrations" actual integrations. More like hacked Joomla bridges). :p
