Maybe we should call it Session in that case? :)

It might seem like nitpicking, but names of entities is a guide to what
they represent, and the THD object has more or less become a general
bucket for all kinds of pieces, small as well as large. A name change
would probably focus the work to producing a proper Session object
instead of a "catch-all" class.

Also, last time I checked it was around 4K large: I wouldn't mind
participating in producing a proper Session object with a significantly
smaller size (especially check the number of bool fields in the object,
each bool wastes at least 7 bits of data since at least a char has to be
allocated for it in the structure).

Just my few cents,
Mats Kindahl
