I think I'm in the same boat as you, Greg: feel funny about using
pools this way, but don't have a better idea. Adding an extra
argument -- no, pair of arguments, since we need a baton too -- to
just about every library function certainly seems worse.

In the absence of a super-clever better idea, hanging this stuff off
the pool is probably the best course, for sufficiently low values of
"best".
