We got close a while ago with the extended complex code
from Matthieu Schaller. I don't know if this is the right ticket.
But it seemed like the right direction last year. As I recall,
Matthieu's code needs to be reviewed and probably needs
to be better documented.

That life-long TODO list keeps getting longer and longer! :-)
