Maybe someday, individual have/want lists for parts (part of the LUGNET
plan) could be linked in with this -- but that'd be quite a ways down the

I ought to clarify that a bit -- I'm not offering to write anything to
handle this _yet_.  I think later it will all fit in nicely with the rest of

given, so really only the transaction handlers and trackers and queues will
be the tricky bits.
