Generating the feeds like that based on custom outputs is not, that I've
seen, something that venus can do, not for the rss feeds. The problem is
we'd be generating a different feed per user which makes it a bit hurky.
Alternatively, we'd have to do it via a cgi of some kind which is just
going to be VERY VERY SLOW and resource intensive.

I'll look into it but I'm not particularly hopeful about it.
