I've changed this, since it seems reasonable enough. Other, larger
changes have been suggested in this thread; I'd be interested to see the
results of a prototype of those changes.
(When time permits, I'll be interested in prototyping myself, but at the
moment I'm occupied with a different region of the game. So, if you
want to see movement on this anytime fairly soon, do it yourself, and
write to r.g.r.a with code and results. :)
