	Hey Scott! Wow, very detailed there. :-) No need to write quite
that much, we're relatively informal--you're free to just say, "Hey, I
think we should add X to Y, sound good?"

	My responses below:

	The problem is that I don't want, in the future, two ways to do
the same thing--that can be pretty confusing. Bug.search (or whatever
we're calling it) will get that information for us, so I don't want to
add another way to get it. We can't remove functions once we add
them--that breaks the API--so we have to be careful about what we add.

	Sure, that'd be good. I already have a patch that does that
somewhere, I might have even attached it to a bug.
