I don't care. Not at all.

What I mean by saying this is that the problem, in this situation, dictates the solution. @nielsoftware seems to have a great workflow while @dorshinar has a great point relative to API. The commonality seems to be scope and scale.

This concept irks me. Scope and Scale are restrictions (constructs) from an engineering point of view. Forcing a different paradigm among constructs is a basic programming no-no. I'd say the issue is a) under engineered and is a one-off b) under engineered and perceived to be a one-off c) over engineered and has too many options d) lacks clarity in it's definition.

my 2 cents
