There are many problems to address with the system ... however, we are
trying to hold off an entire game makeover untill after the 1.0
release. Personally, I think the goals of 1.0 would be more realizable
if we did a code makeover now, but redoing the entire system will take
a while, longer than most people seem to want to compromise for 1.0.
