Sharing is an interesting problem, and may be addressed, but I feel it is explicitly secondary in priority to solving the problem in the non-shared domain. (But, we should think about it up front, because that kind of thing tends to be hard to retrofit.)
Wow, I suddenly love that word. Retrofit. It's the exact concept I think about when I think about programming towards a goal and without a plan... That is, do you program what just works, or do you always keep the grand scheme in mind? Because sometimes, the grand scheming gets in the way of whats practical. I forgot what software engineering concept that is, but I've always thought about it. Yup... Retrofitting.
I love the prefix retro. It's so... Fetch.
