the journeyman developer response of: "this is too &^%$$# much work and too
easy to screw up in my code." This will take real, by the numbers,
"UOM for Dummies" documentation for about 85% of the folks working in our
domain. And that may be generous. If we follow this we are going to
need lots of very clear examples. Especially, since it would require us to
break our current rule of avoiding attributes as much as
possible.
