-------------------------------+--------------------------------
 There's a lot of bogus includes in our codebase (where low-level modules
 depend on high-level ones).  We want that to happen less in our
 refactoring.  One main cause of this is that mainloop.c has all of the
 peroidic events in the code.  Instead, we should have each module own its
 own periodic events.
