What Queen's Gambit Accepted: Furman Variation puts on the board

Material is level, with white to move.

No pawn occupies d4, e4, d5 or e5, so the central pawn structure is still fluid.

White has castled kingside; Black can still castle either side.

The c-file and d-file are open for heavy pieces.
