I was about to call you out, too, Brian.
I started trying to work with LCB several years ago, kept slamming into
things that weren't documented, and decided I had better things to do with
my time.
Now I'm back at it, but I don't think it should be such a black hole,
especially when I put it down for a couple of months and then want to get
back into it.
If we want other people to take the plunge, and maybe invent cool stuff
using it, something better than what exists, now, should exist.
