We've been thinking that the requirement piece needs to be longer and
more fleshed out, so hadn't considered combining c/d with e as a result.
Please check out the proposed revisions and let us know if you still

This actually doesn't require them - just that any that are be permanent
or user selectable.
We might want to combine the two thoughts.
Require them and require that they be perm or user selectable (in one
