hehe, no problem. We're open to new, unstable, slow, and nasty to
write languages too ;) ;)

The code looks really nice, thanks for your contribution. I just
commited it to the trunk =)

It's perfect to do it like this. If you want to contribute on a
regular basis, and you send some more good patches I'll give you SVN
access.

Excellent, I modified the code with your patch.

Both ideas sound really interesting, for the first one I recommend
you to perform some google searches to see if somebody else did it
before in python, maybe we can copy+paste that code (if license is GPL
compatible). For the second idea... pff!... I wouldn't know where to
start from with a task like that... JS is horrible, and it will be a
hard task to do, but if you wan't it... do it =)
Thanks for your support and contributions,
