I've opened this up for comments (and slightly updated it) because email
is a horrible form for document editing.

Also, this is _MY_ working document, if tangents come off it it in the
comments that _I_ don't see as useful they will be removed.  Don't get
mad if I don't take your change as this is my proposal.  If you disagree
go make your own :P
