Sure. But, unfortunately, it's not trivial to set up some useful
test cases without actually implementing my suggested approach
in several applications first.

So, before writing any code, I'll first try to thing through
several scenarios and analyze what could be done and design
a model. When that's done, maybe I'll hire a bunch of students
for the actual coding.
