Okay, I probably made that sound a lot worse than it actually is. There 
is only one new fileformat in there (and it's documented). But I 
understand where your concern is coming from.

Are you referring just to the (currently messy) disk 
config/attach/whatever order, or a more drastic overhaul of how we 
configure disk settings?

I haven't worked with CCD, Vinum, or GBDE (yet), so I'm not sure if I'll 
be a good person to tackle it, but I'll certainly give it some thought 
though. Sounds like an interesting little challenge that I may just be 
able to find time for :)
