Since my month converter knows it wants digits, I feel silly being unable to 
let it declare that and having to repeat that over and over. While it could be 
instead maybe:
{month::month_conv} to indicate I want the regex month_conv has, it seems that 
might be easy to goof up and leave off a semi-colon.

For some converters that might have a large regular expression that goes with 
it, I fear having to type it a million times along with the converter name in 
addition to the marker name. I'd highly prefer to let the converter supply a 
regex appropriate, since the converter will fail without an appropriate value 
anyways which it supposedly has a clue what would be a valid conversion...
