	It would be nice and I could use it immediately.  That's come up in  
my brain a lot lately, but I've done little more than dropping a TODO  
at the top level of a project.

	Tom Lord wrote up an idea for such a thing a while back when he was  
working on gnu arch.  It might be good to see if there are any  
salvageable ideas from that.  Your interface idea looks pretty good so  
far.
