By all means, but I suspect your users would benefit by keeping at least
some of the existing content. ;-)

Apparently all you PyMeld types like to lie in wait and then reply in
groups. ;-)

Thanks Richie! (and Paul and Hamish, for the same answer)  This looks 
promising.

One thing that I find interesting, after a 15-second perusal of the 
examples, is how incredibly close our own fledgling implementation is,
to the point of matching the "clone template row, delete, fill in table
with replacements" sequence, almost down to the API.

I'm looking forward to a more extensive look at it.  (I was about to say
I'd be happy to contribute improvements, but we (a company) were planning 
to release our own under a BSD license at some point, whereas I see yours 
has the more restrictive SleepyCat license (commercial use for a fee only), 
so I'm afraid I might do nothing more than pick over the best ideas from 
your API rather than look into the code itself.)
