I think this would be a great project.  It is probably a bit overdue, and I 
like starting with something a bit smaller than the whole conf file.

Well, essentially, "estimate" does this, but I think for your purposes it will 
need to be enhanced, and possibly even turned into a .estimate to get a more 
machine readable format.

I believe most of the mechanisms we need are already in place.  It is just a 
question of understanding the whole "page" you want to create so that we can 
be sure to design in the necessary capabilities from the beginning -- even if 
we don't implement everything from the beginning.

Can you be just a bit more explicit what the page will look like?

Best regards,

Kern
