I was thinking along that line. Continuing on the idea of the fully
scriptable operating system. Why not have bindings for the items we
include in base, not necessarily external third party components but
core os and our homegrown parts (netpgp, bozo,...). This would be ideal
for a workshop where you want to give a taste of what's possible and
build up from there.

Seeing that it was Marc's work and he is of this parish, it was a nice
compliment to the other work he has done and we are lacking such a
component.
