I would very much like to help with this because I think your distro is heading in the right direction..however, right now I am trying to make a deadline for my work and I don't see myself having any time to get started on this until after Monday/Tuesday sometime. If you can wait a little while, I would be happy to lend a hand when I get a little free time.
