I'd be open to that -- it's why I said "existing" code :-).
It doesn't matter to me whether my functions live in the

Faith may be defined briefly as an illogical belief in the occurrence
of the improbable...A man full of faith is simply one who has lost (or
never had) the capacity for clear and realistic thought. He is not a
mere ass: he is actually ill.	-- H. L. Mencken
