Thanks, Andrey.

You're the only person who hasn't taken this as an opportunity to tell me why 
I'm wrong or give me a quick lesson in admining.  I wanted to float the idea, 
not have people try to solve my space issues.

Perhaps I should have phrased it as the space constraints inspired the idea... 
oh well.

Now I just need either to back-port this to 0.99.14, or for Timo to add keywords 
to 1.0.  (keywords is responsible for .customflags, isn't it?  nobody wants to 
confirm this for me ):
