Phew!

Ohhkayy. Have I mentioned we've still got a long way to go?
I'd like to propose to keep this in mind as a possible long-term goal.
As you said we'd need the simple fallback anyway, so that's what we
should aim for at the moment, right? When we have this working the way
we want _and_ the prospects of getting some advanced soundtrack(s) done
we can come back to this one.

Agreed?
