This still does not address the original problem - if
$external_service shuts down, is bought out, has arbitrary terms about
content that are not immediately clear as being unfavourable to us,
(at least) that part of the project which is hosted on is negatively
affected.

The 1-2 times that I asked for access to overlays, time taken was a
non-issue. If others have had problems, let's fix that instead.
