 > I think you're looking at this from the opposite direction: they hope we
 will think up a protocol that better (less hackily) supports what they're
 trying to wrestle our current protocol into doing. This isn't a "please
 build the following alternate interface" ticket. This ticket is a step
 before that.

 Hm. Okay, in that case I probably need to get much more up to speed about
 "what they're trying to wrestle our current protocol into doing" so I can
 understand what it means to support it less hackily.
