BTW, I'm considering maybe we should have a command for running
periodic expire tasks for Bayes and AWL, and other long-running modes
of operation; this would:

  (a) do bayes expires, if needed
  (b) do AWL expires if needed
  (c) other long-runtime tasks that may be suited to "offline" generation,
      e.g. generating trusted_networks caches from a Bayes db dump
      or similar
  (d) possibly downloading frequently-updated data from a central
      server if needed for future rules

something like "sa-cron".

Right now, we just suggest that large-scale bayes users can run
"sa-learn --rebuild" from cron; strikes me that there'll be other jobs
that may need that treatment too.

Or should we just have some kind of inference code to do that stuff from
the engine automatically, like we currently have for bayes?
