Absolutely, I was actually assuming those latter two would be my
responsibility anyways - that's what I took out of the conversation,
at any rate. The 'simplified' editing was really just an idealistic
edge case, so please don't waste time on it unless you find the idea
intellectually stimulating or something. And yes, the account stuff is
definitely something I'll do on my own as I see fit for my needs,
although I may share it with the list once it's done :)
