I personally like the idea of a world where the standard response to "hey we wanna play with this thing and it's all coded up already" is "sure, lemme set you up with a prototype wiki".

If it is or can be written in a way that makes it easy to disable (or if there's some other caveat such as it not doing anything if the conversion tables are empty), it can be committed straight to trunk. If this is not possible, it can be put in a branch, but trunk would really be preferred here, and disableability should be relatively easy to accomplish. Then when it's agreed that this should go on a prototype wiki, Ryan or I will set up the wiki and configure it, and it'll be all yours.
