Richard, seriously though, if you have any coherent thoughts on the matter
it would be interesting to hear them. It's a much more complicated issue
than people assume and it overlaps with another complicated issue that I
don't want to even bring up.

Personally, I have some scripts that import symlink'd files, remove unused
sources and things like that, but this is all specific to Non. Making
something that would work for all clients is a much bigger problem.
