I forgot to say: please coordinate with Brian M. Carlson if working on
this one.  That makes it possible to divide up the work in a way that
doesn't lead to people patching the same files and stepping on each
other's toes.

This is one of the larger tasks and contributions to it are very
useful.  Just do coordinate.

For comparison, the other suggestions in the list should be possible
for a rogue agent to experiment with alone, with advice from the list
where they need it. :)
