So, either you are stunned in silence from its sheer brilliant, so the 
idea is soo laden with crack its not worthy of reply ;-) Assuming the 
former, it'd be cool to some of the stuff into the project repository.
I'm thinking

  * Formalize the notes from my previous into a real spec
    (in docbook ?) and add it to the project website.
  * Add the prototype Perl implementation to CVS and make it
    actually follow the spec.
  * Consider/plan what extensions are needed for the Java to let
    it implement the spec.
