Unfortunately, I have to admit there's no rush - I have plenty of other 
things taking most of my time at the moment, so you're in no danger of 
being left out of the discussion by being busy.

I am very curious to see exactly how you see this working, however; to 
me the notion of explicit conversions between modules seems to require 
the developer of one module to know too much about the internals of 
another.  But I'm sure you've got your reasons.
