That's fine. I offered to help as well if they wanted to follow my
suggestion.
That said I don't want to suddenly have new functionality show up as
part of *this* case -- e.g. the HTTP functionality to which Roland was
alluding. If there were an attempt to grow that new functionality in
*this case*, then I'd derail.
I will let the matter drop unless the submitter wants to follow my
suggestion (in which case my offer of help stands), or the submitter
takes the inadvisable action of trying to suddenly increase the scope of
this case by adding a bunch of new unrelated functionality into the
/usr/lib/shell directory.
