The concrete goal is to make the loader not insane.  Here's a diagram of the current state of the loader:

Here's a sketch of one possible future for the loader:

That diagram is missing a lot of details and certainly still up for discussion.  Our thought process is to try to improve the loader iteratively.  This patch is one step in that direction.  Of course, the loader is complicated, so we're try to proceed slowly and carefully.  Input from folks such as yourself is much appreciated.
