Yeah, I looked at this too.. and it's somewhat what I had in mind -
the only difference is that I think we need to support multiple
instances (e.g. multiple Google accounts - I personally have both a
gmail.com account and also a google-hosted fubar.dk account). While
this might be a 5% thing (I think it's slightly higher actually),
enough of us hackers use such a feature so not supporting it means a
lot of people won't be eating the dogfood.
