Doesn't work in a multi-user environment. Other users may be humans,
intelligent agents, whatever, hand-helds, pda's, network users.
This may seem like a far-fetched requirement at the moment, but
I don't think that coding "built-in obsolecense" (i.e. single-user
traditional MS-style app) is any better.
