We'll never reimplement Argument Clinic in C.  I could list many reasons 
for this.  Suffice to say, I'm not doing it, and I doubt anyone else 
would ever step up to the plate and try it.

And, "form follows function".  It's a bad idea to limit Argument 
Clinic's features today based on what might be inconvenient someday in 
some hypothetical rewrite in C.  Argument Clinic should be maximally 
useful, right now.
