Yup. And hence it's a moving target, difficult problem, etc, etc

all adds up to a good reason to keep it out of the Drivel core, but to 
allow it as an addon library for those users who are aware that it may 
well break 5 minutes down the line, without (hopefully) them blaming 
Drivel itself.
The point I wanted to make was that I would like it if Drivel moved 
further towards a plugin system for supporting different blogging 
systems, especially given that the current internals of Drivel make it 
pretty difficult (read: have to make *lots* of small changes everywhere) 
to add a new blogging system, and I think changing that would be a good 
thing. IMHO, this should be something to be discussed once we get Drivel 
development moving again.
