The only pain is updating all the parts at once. But if we collect and
format the data, we could use a script to (a) insert the data into the files
and (b) report problems: no LCD data for a file, problems inserting the LCD
data into a file, or LCD data that doesn't match a file.
Any (textual) data can be recorded on a meta-statement in a part file. For
connections, this could be like:
0 LCD <type> <position> <orientation> <size>
Where <type> is a (alpha)numeric code, position and orientation are numeric
triples, and size is one or more numeric items.
