Absolutely. We even had it as a top-level topic for the last hands-on dev
meeting, but sadly we ran out of time.

This is something that we really need to find a better answer for, but it's
a pretty delicate balancing act, as any 'quick hack' solution will break
enough assumptions throughout our architecture to cause real problems
elsewhere.  And yet, it's a very valid and important request.  We simply
haven't had the bandwidth to tackle it directly, sad to say.
