Basically, yes. You'd end up caching information, since a live
translation would be overcomplex (it's probably enough to cache the
metadata).

I might start by putting the bridge capability into cvsnt (since most of
the hard work is done & I know the code), then writing a standalone one
later. Proof of concept, I guess.
