These use cases are great. The comparison between the status quo and
shiny future are also great and the shiny futures are a good point to
start rough prototype sketches from and run them by users to see if they
make sense. If the users like them, then the step after that would be to
take a look and see how close the technology could get us to them.

Hiemanshu, if you want some help with prototype sketches of the shiny
future ideas, just let me know and I'm happy to crank some out for you.

I'm also happy to join the meeting, Paul, if you think it would be
helpful but you do seem off to a great start as-is.
