I have sudden need for GUI support for the Forest extension.  I have
only rudimentary python experience but the code looks pretty
straightforward.  Maybe just replacing 'clone' with 'fclone', 'update'
with 'fupdate', etc would work.  Alternatively, I could maybe just
duplicate all the functions with a forest equivalent.  Seems reasonable
to me.

The sticking point is that I am very much NOT setup for python
development under Windows.  The source installation instructions look
pretty heavy, too, for such a simple change.

I see that the file I'd need to modify is in the library.zip file.  It's
already in byte-code by that point.  So maybe there is a way to modify
the file using only the already-installed code?

Specifically, might it be possible to edit a local copy of the file,
then force python to generate its bytecode, then unzip + replace the
file + re-zip the library.zip file?  Would/could that work?
