That's like what I did for zoneTrans, and my point is that it's pretty lame
that a bunch of scripts will have to do the exact same steps when the solution
can be built-in somehow. Like I said, I'm not pulling for any individual
change (as much as I like the simple _R), but surely something can be done
without requiring the scripts to handle the workaround for excess typing and
what is IMO ugliness.
