Comment(by guest):

 One other suggestion for anyone interested in making this happen - ban
 defaulting in your initial version, get it working nicely, then add
 defaulting. This will help make the initial design simpler, and will
 require you to add more type information in the input modules you're
 testing it on, which should help to flush out more bugs.

 Switching back to regular input modules for testing your production
 version will no doubt uncover a few extra bugs.
