That sounds a bit speculative to me. Who is to say that anyone will
find that useful? I mean, I think it's fine and good to build the
functionality that we need in a way that maximizes the likelihood that
other tools can reuse that functionality, and I think we should do
that. But I don't think it's smart to build functionality that we
don't really need in the hope that somebody else will find it useful
unless we're pretty sure that they actually will. I don't see that as
being the case here; YMMV.
