I have been working on something like this and would like to continue doing so 
for SoC (see [1]). However, it is a fairly large project and I would 
appreciate some input on what specific goals to target for SoC.
Also, I anticipate some resistance, so I'd suggest seeing that project as a 
long term experiment starting with SoC, that may eventually produce something 
that satisfies most of the developer staff.
