*shrug* One of the things about the C API is that it's a "support
forever" sort
of thing.  Is this kind of thing a big enough use case that we want to have
an API specifically for it?

I don't see why not.
C is a worthy language, one that I think we should fully support.
And by just providing some minor features really limits its usefulness.
Right now, at this very instance it isn't usable. Except as a stepping stone
to the bigger framework.

But thats just my 2 cents.
