I like the modularity of your design. I might have to "borrow" this design
and see if I can use it for anything of my own. :-)

One idea, although I am not the person to head this up, would be to create
a Datville for each major theme. Say a Spaceport where ship and vehicle
designs could be shared, or a Kingdom where castle designs are shared.

Any thoughts?
