Yes... I recall discussing this option before (making Application a
Borg). I have found some posts about it, but can't find any arguments
against it. It sure sounds very natural to me.

Anyone have opinions in the matter? Alex, you're the Borg man -- what
do you think?

Come to think of it, I think I actually *did* make Application into a
Borg at one time, and that it was changed back, but I can't remember
why... (I guess better use of CVS checkin messages and ChangeLogs
wouldn't be a bad idea ;)

I know what you mean. As long as we don't slow down to a halt, I think
Anygui can (and will have to) live with a leisurely pace.
