A few things:

- auto-identifiations of different quoting styles and appropriate
  reversible auto-filling of them
- reversible killing of sigs
- unification of distinct sets of citation marks (i.e. quoting
  when multiple SuperCite users have been at the post ;) )
- a generalized framework for acquiring data from the headers
  to later stuff into the attribution line
- a framework for providing different attributions for different
  groups

and of course

- the ability to call a function to generate attributions

There may be stuff I missed in that quick pass through the code, but I
think that should be enough. :)

What we need these days is a stable, fast, anti-aliased root beer
with dynamic shading. Not that you can let just anybody have root.
