I didn't intend to force everybody to use unix shell here. You would
be able to choose your language, so you could use a list of domains,
or Haskell.

Right now I think the best way would be to extend hooks (if neccesary)
so you can implement such a feature yourself on top of them.

BTW, *nix users are plugging darcs into the overall *nix philosophy,
where you can connect small tools together to get what you want. Do you
want to ban this from us because it doesn't work on Windows? (and I
think it works to some degree with cygwin, etc, doesn't it?)
