Understandable.  I think that the sign of a great piece of software is
in fact the flexiblity to be used in a piecemeal fashion and in ways
not originally intended.  Reducing internal coupling would go a very
long way towards making this a reality (e.g. don't pass a RunData when
just a couple of Strings are required by a method).

Think of it more as something to strive for as Turbine continues to
develop.  :)
