A variety of ways exist, but each one comes with some, albeit minor,
disadvantage and added complexity.  So I'd like first to see whether
this is needed, on top of what's already there.

Basically, I'd like to keep the feature as simple and lightweight as
possible, leaving the 20% percent to local customizations, rather than
forcing everyone to bear the price.
