One of the simplest ways to resolve this issue is to implement your own
code in terms of an API.  Thus you become your own customer and there's no
need to guess.  By eating your own dog food you produce a very robust, 
flexible API this way.

An example of this will be when I get around to reworking Test::Harness into
a formatter object.  Test::Harness itself becomes a formatter object passed
into the parser object (Test::Harness::Straps).  This should shape all the
important functionality of the formatter API.
