The trouble with planned soluttions is that it tends to *never* get
implemented.  Lots of talking, lots of ideas, precious little
implementation.

I'm not afraid of iterative solutions.  It doesn't bother me to think
that I might implement something today, just to get it out there, and
then have to revert it.

I think what's missing most of the time, certainly in discussions like
this, is the part of "invent" where a usable solution winds up existing.
