Great, since I got no reaction to this idea, I thought maybe I was out
to lunch :) Apart from being fresh, do you think it's worth it?
Would you consider it for inclusion? Do you think it would be hard
to do?

I'd be interested in seeing the interface when you have it available.
If it could support the features I proposed, I'd still be happy (even

of extension scripts, so that people can rely on them everywhere).
