like a lot of other things ("transparency" among them), this seems to 
translate into "more bandwidth".

I don't think I can get my ADs to work 100% more. So when we're done 
identifying the problems, I'd like to work on getting more bandwidth 
available.

(yes, I think I can get 30% more bandwidth out of them if I can arrange 
their work more efficiently. The ID-tracker has removed enormous amounts of 
frustration already, freeing up that space for other things. But I don't 
think that will be enough to get where we want to be.)
