I tried it only once. The crackling of purple lighting around my monitor and
the distant sound of voices chanting in an unknown tongue should have warned
me to desist sooner, but it was all fun and games until our cat nearly fell
through a crack in the space-time continuum. Which was quite enough of *that*;
Zola is a *nice* kitty and deserves a better fate than becoming a snack for the
likes of Azathoth. Hmmmph.

The inevitable question...

Works fine on the logic. But the translation fails because the Go
regexp library doesn't support lookbehinds, which messes over most of
the central regexp transformations.  That was a problem for the
reposurgeon code, too; I had to abandon one very minor feature because
of it.  The RFE will be in my experience report.

In truth, for this I would have used Python anyway.  I like Go fine but Python
still has an edge for small rapid-prototyping jobs like this one. It's
not like reposurgeon, the datasets won't ever become large enough for
compiled-language performance to be really needful.
