The grimoire architecture will remain the same, very flexible. The
ability to generate views based on keyword simply adds more flexibility.
For Example:

I'll maintain the MailServer keyword spells.

That limits me within the mail section and then I don't have to maintain
client spells. Just as an example.

A better example would be this SCM stuff.

gaze maintainer scm
David Kowis maintains Keyword SCM.

And then the user can gaze keyword scm. Makes it quite simple. Then it
doesn't really matter which section those spells are in, and it can be
easily known who maintains what.

Hell, if it's down to a guru wanting to maintain only the spells he
uses, he could add his name to the keyword list.

gaze keyword dkowis

and the list of my spells follows. Adding keywords makes the grimoire
significantly more flexible than it is now. Spells can be placed where
it makes sense to whomever is placing them, and if it doesn't makes
sense to you add the correct keyword.

However, this does bring up that we should probably limit the number of
keywords. Although maybe we don't need to do that either.

Just some thoughts.
