Well, it's building a magnetic (i.e., quantum electrodynamical) field to 
generate gravity. I think you'd need to have a unified theory that's 
correct to make this work. So yeah, it's targeting the same stuff that 
string theory targets, except with something testable. ;-)

     It's not feature creep if you put it
     at the end and adjust the release date.
