Advanced topics like these are the reason this is a collaborative project... Of the 5 topics you mentioned having code samples for, I only know how to write 3 of them so far. So if it were just me doing this, it'd have gapong holes in it... Any chance you'd have the time & inclination to get started on one of your suggested topics?
