heh ... I'll say so.  One thing this drops, though, is the command
renaming which would actually give us i18n for free.  I'm probably
missing something, but what is all that infrastructure buying us that
a simple config file controlled hash not?

If you guys want, I'll work up a quick patch to do login as I've
proposed.  I feel like I'm not explaining it well enough ... what I'm
thinking of is just much simpler than what either of you have
suggested thus far.
