</div>I dirtied your pretty doc with two questions - but they are nitpicky<br>
things. In general, I think it's sexy.<br>

<br></div><div class="gmail_extra" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Wondering if you'd mind describing a bit more the problem you're actually trying to solve here?  I don't quite understand what you see as the actual use case, and in particular the extensions piece.</div>
