    On a slightly different topic:

    Interesting point... although the point of a core is to be 'generic', and exist
     as a jumping off point for bigger and better things.  A core is just the
     basics -- all the things you think you might need to get a job done.  What
     that job is is not up to the core.  I don't expect the core to do everything
     I want... what would be the fun in that?
