+ * Separate generic plugin/command/etc. stuff and nbb specific

  * Switch plugins.Foo.validate() functions to different protocol:
    Either return or raise an exception.
+ * Use different exceptions for plugins signalling detection failure
+   to detect() and detect() to signal "no matching plugin detected"
+   to detect()'s caller.
  * BS support: cmake, scons, ...
  * VCS support: SVN, darcs, hg, ...
- * Make automake's make depend on configure etc.
  * Out-of-source builds for systems which require in-source-tree builds:
    "cp -rl foo.src foo.build"?
  * General removal of redundancy in Python code.
  * Useful logging infrastructure, and --debug etc user interface.
- * Make sure the if cmp ... mv .. rm in make rules are correct and useful.
+ * Make sure the "if cmp ... mv .. rm" in make rules are correct and useful.
  * More declarative syntax elements in the Python code.
  * Use declarations for command line parsing, and help text generation.
    Use optparse stuff for both global params and extra optparse stuff

  * Model different "stages" of e.g. automake builds as distinct objects,

- * Design nice user interface. Requirements:
-   * start subshell in top_srcdir, builddir, installdir
- * Bash syntax completion for that user interface.
