Aloha,

pretty neat thing to me


Yes, and IMO is also PC-centric, no question. The 'adapted to a locale'
clinches it... :-)

I simply want to avoid shifting our focuse to *catering to* specialist
groups in specialized ways.

What exactly, are you referring to here, John? What specialist groups?
and why not?

If PC is a meta-design system, as we claim,
then a PC-centric database will implicitly support all these sorts of more
specialized folks while simultaneously educating them in various
meta-domains (such as PC design, whether they know it or not).
