You know, I just realized another potential problem we'd have
if we tried to break up the main library into chunks of
functionality.  Many of the objects depend upon each other
in their internal implementations.  This isn't always via a
class hierarchy; for example, there are several "has-a"
relationships in the kit, where objects contain MiscStrings
or what have you.  Thus, breaking things up and then documenting
things so that a developer could actually get things to work
right would be monumental.  Maybe that extra 50k-100k isn't
so bad after all...
