I meant missing from the documentation. I'm not volunteering to track
every possible piece of data available. Most of your requests don't
fit with the intent of this file, and belong elsewhere. It'd probably
be a bad idea for me to design the necessary data structures anyway,
as I'm not involved in any of the uses and would probably get them
wrong.
