Well put. BTW, I didn't abandon the discussion, just went away for 6 
days w/o e-mail.

I should also emphasize that the main point of the project--assuming I 
decide to go ahead with it--is to provide a nice interface for desktop

infrastructure facilities ... will be made to support the interface. Or 
else.
