Not surer. You'd be guessing at what grid computing would *actually* 
need to be able to do. With the LHC, you have an excellent example of a 
collection of applications that need something like this.

Guessing at what some customer who never heard of your system might want 
out of a product is the surest way to build a product nobody wants.
