So you say nobody was trying to implement it? The problem with that is it tends to make things work *worse* and much more difficult to debug than if you used 10 or 12 smaller programs that do one thing and one thing well, stringing them together with pipes and whatnot to achieve your goal than the opposite approach of one program that does 10 or 12 things really poorly.
