If you feel like giving it a shot, ain't nobody gonna stand in your way.
MainLoop() is well past the level of unmaintainability IMHO (which is
why I'd not tried to touch it in the original quick patch).
I'm not totally convinced that flex can do the job, but in any case a
ground-up redesign for legibility might be the only cure.
