Exposing internals, as opposed to behavior, is not necessarily giving anyone
a helping hand.  I'm just saying to be careful, not rather than do this by
rote.  Considering that this is Open Source, I would rather have someone
come to us and point out where we should expose something, than expose too
much and be backed into a corner when it comes to changing how something
internal is implemented.

I absolutely agree.  Isnt' that what we've been discussing?  I'm almost
certain that I mentioned that in one of my e-mails.
