But Todd has put so much effort into making LugNET do things The Right Way
it seems a shame to mar it with such an unelegant solution.

I think this would be great.  I'd be happy to abide by some nomenclature
that automagically turned set numbers into hyperlinks for users of the
web interface.  <set=6077> could turn into <a href="www.lugnet.com...6077">
6077</a>, and all we would see would be a blue hypertext clickable 6077
that led to a picture of the set.  Awesome!

Of course, users of newsreader software would see the whole <set=6077>
nomenclature, so it would be best to make the nomenclature as unobtrusive
as possible.  Maybe just <6077> would be enough to clue the software
in that it needed to generate a hyperlink for that set number.
