[~mjsax] Since separate JIRAs have been created for these two separate goals, 
could we close this ticket then, or do you think there are still some 
additional feature requests that are covered only in this ticket?

[~mjsax], thanks for the clarification.  I'll take a look at what it would take 
for different configurations, but I'll hold off doing anything concrete until

Hey [~bbejeck]. It is still available. However, it is not clearly defined what 
should be done. The description is more or less a collection of ideas rather 
than defined things to do. We first need to make some design decisions and also 
might want do define sub-tasks for individual things, too. Once thing to start, 
would be to allow different configurations for different sources
