We have a design sketch (i.e. very lightweight concept) and would be
happy to discuss that with you. Since the ideas are not something we can
commit to (if we do that and people write a ton of code and then we
change our mind we get held accountable :-)) I'd be happy to bounce them
off you privately. Ping me on IRC (sabdfl on irc.freenode.net) for more.
