My point is if it's ok to add more aggressive questions that would
require users to have a running Octave instance. The Sage wiki for
example requires you to compute the 100th prime or something like
that. Given the kind of contributors we have so far in the wiki, I
don't think we'll scare too many wiki contributors this way.
