Yeah, I'm afraid we've already talked too much. This is beginning to
sound like software engineering! It *would* only take about 15 lines
to right :). But you know, because of the WAR and all, I think we'll
just keep it at compile time bindable. We don't want people thinkin'
they can just bind whatever they want!
