Great! This is the sort of thing which has been discussed for a while on many
of the boards... However there is some dissention from people -- particually 
long-term blenderheads -- saying "extra clicks! evil! evil! evil!" which is (imnsho)
slightly absurd. I had an idea, to do this *everywhere* we can in blender (tuho)
using #ifdefs, so we can just do add a "-D EXPINTERFACE" or something in our
CFLAGS, and change many things to this way, while keeping it compatable with
the usual system, so as to allow testing of this, to see if its such a good idea in
practice (for things like OSA, etc). Should be easy, and fun to do.

What do you think?
