Okay, I'm really pleased to hear this. I was only fearing (and should
have made clearer) that this will suck of a huge amount of developing
power from all the other nice and beautiful things I can think of for
base. :)

Maybe I forgot for a while what pain is has actually been getting
familiar with the API for the first time, since that was short before
OO.o1.0.0 was replacing SO5.2...

If there is a chance to get some shortcuts for commonly used phrases,
please go on.
