Comment:

 @AndyGill: any comments on the proposal from comment:18?

 @mgsloan: I'm still curious what Andy (the creator of hpc) had in mind in
 comment:12, but if your proposal solves the problem, and you don't hear
 from Andy, please go ahead. Sorry for not giving real feedback. I don't
 really know much about hpc at all, and I don't think anyone else does
 either (*cough* technical debt *cough*), but I trust you to do the right
 thing and will make sure your patches get reviewed/merged.
