The other part is iterating through the word list, which should use some 
of the "walk" features in mifluz. But the patch that was submitted to do 
that use an old, old version of the mifluz API. So until someone 
(probably me) gets the time to get mifluz merged back in and can turn 
back towards htmerge, it's going to be inefficient.
