Hey, I wrote it, and even I don't use it.  I thought it was a good idea
at the time, but after playing with it a bit, I agree with Jack that
adaptive scoring and a few static scores seems to work just fine.  If
someone puts in the time to get it working though, I'll gladly roll the
patch into the distributed file.

When I get back from AnimeExpo, I'll probably get around to upgrading to
5.2 finally, and maybe I'll feel inspired to add more features then...

Brian.
