Yes, and we are in danger of "premature optimization" of the _interface_.  

What we need to start with is a list of "what we need to know" - they may 
as well be separate parameters at this point - then we can decide 
how best to group them and provide wrapper(s) that call the zillion 
parameter version. If there turns out to be only one sensible wrapper
then it can become _the_ interface.
