Unfortunately, I think this idea did get lost in the noise...
However, I also think that there could be a possibility of building some
sort of translator as part of the "put away" function in the In/Out box.
I'd have to think about how I'd actually start doing it, but it's not
that complex a problem.
Any NewtonScripters out there want to take a stab at this to give us a
starting point?
