Glad to hear about the Wells Fargo issue.  I really am looking forward
to using MW.

I'm surprised that people think my idea is that complex (although what
do I know? I have never actually written any software even 1/100th as
complex as MW).  It seems like most of the work is already done.  MW
can download transactions.  MW already classifies different
transactions based on some set of internal (and user defined)
criteria.  This would simply (hah! there's that word again) extend it
a bit.

I guess that I am just an interface nazi because most software seems
to miss the mark for me.  I actually have a "thinking" box parked on
the desk in front of me but I still have to "do" everything myself.
It is analagous to power steering.  It may be assisted, but I still
have to steer - which really seems to shortchange the possibilities we
have with such powerful and interconnected machines.  The mission
statement shouldn't be "make steering simpler"... it should be "get to
destination with less effort".  All too often I think our software
goals are to mimic analog methods too closely rather than think about
what the ultimate purpose of the activity is in the first place.

Of course, once again, I have never actually written such a complex
piece of software so please treat this as a "hmmm... wouldn't it be
interesting" comment rather than a criticism.
