Yes, definitely experimental and may-eat-your-data.
I hope the subject-to-change bit can be minimized, though I'll
drop the '<>' in "lei q" JSON before release.
I'm also considering diverging from mairix in making --augment
the default behavior in "lei q". That would make things
significantly safer, and --no-augment would be required to
clobber existing outputs.
