Alexander has actually been working quite hard on this, and we greatly
appreciate his efforts.  It's been ready to commit for several days, but
he has held off to allow others to review and test it.  And, it gives
kse-based apps a fighting chance to start working, which is the first
step to debugging kse in the real world.  Please don't make me get
grounchy over this.
