Actually, Dan is not the only person to want and need the Graffiti(TM)
internal state information. We have a "keyboard" (well, an input method
- not T9) that would be qualitatively better integrated with the device
if it were to have both read and write access to Graffiti's states. So
far, on purpose, I have avoided diddling with the various bits and such.
But no one likes to make the choice of either:

        A) Diddling with OS bits.
or
        B) Integrating with the device in a looser manner than what should be
the case.

So this is a vote to expose the Graffiti states through the API.
