Yes.  Right now they would go into cache and when the get rotated out
would get put onto disk.

This will be taken care of.  Actually I should be able to fix this
tonight.  Basically all users will have a dir with certain files that
they can tweak.  It really should be done in a DB but I want to take
advantage of XML and don't have a good way to store XML in a DB in an
open manner.

I sort of agree.  Mostly like 80% agree 20% disagree :)..

Actually I want to get a XQL based way to store tons of XML docs in a DB
so that I don't have to use the FS.  Not for 1.0 though.  More like 1.1
-> 2.0.
