I think this may call for a specialized gateway. I've seen people do this with bugzilla, I think.
It would be useful for us here, i think.

Linux is like a Vorlon. It is incredibly powerful, gives terse,
cryptic answers and has a lot of things going on in the background.

For the case above a specialized mailgate must clearly be the best. But I
can imagine that people might want customized transaction types - most
important specialized Link transactions. Those customized transaction
types must be available through all three UIs.

Ah. For now, let's leave the generalized transaction thing alone. I can see it for links
in 2.0 but other stuff is going to be more difficult and is likely to slow us down a lot.

Transporters are so ungodly. if god had wanted us to travel great distances
instantaneously, he would have given us an internal
materialisation/dematerialisation control.

Eventually. Or maybe not, maybe it will be more difficult to retrofix it.
I will at least try to think a bit and mail some design thoughts.
