This is fine; the api is not nailed down because we were waiting for
feedback from the SEXTANE developer (I think Jesse was working on
this?).

This would be a little lame; my money is on the first one. Note you
may need to use the Name data structure (rather than a String) to
allow for some namespace goodness later.
