I suspect O'Reilly Media's trademark for "in a Nutshell" in book titles
would put me in trouble.  Still, sure, I could go for a different title
and self-publish, if I disagreed with ORM's assessment of the market
chances enough to be willing to risk it.  I _am_ considering this
possibility, of course.  But it seems a bit far-fetched.
