You or any other person can implement whatever you want and I welcome 
you in that. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, I just say that 
philosophies of those two programs are different. Buffer is a file vs. 
buffer is [fill in]. You are mixing them. I learned to respect any 
particular program philosophy if it does job well. Both of them do.
No war, peace man ;-)
