/* We want the engine startup to be as automatic as possible -- in particular,
 * it should handle dependancies as transparently as possible so external
 * plugins work correctly.
 *
 * This kickstart object works like this : some objects are registered to it,
 * and are responsible of initializing a portion of code. Those objects are
 * called sparks, and have basically three states :
 * - blank -- they haven't managed to initialize anything yet ;
 * - partial -- they have initialized something, but could do more ;
 * - full -- they have initialized all they could.
 *
 * This means that a spark object will have a method which will try to
 * initialize more, and a method which will tell in which state it is : indeed,
 * the kickstart object will need to know when it reached a point where all
 * sparks have done as much as they could, so we need a strictly increasing
 * function up until then.
 *
 * We want the following to be guaranteed by each Spark implementation :
 * - if try_initialize_more returns 'true', then the state should be at least
 * partial ;
 * - try_initialize_more shouldn't return 'true' if no new service could be
 * registered ;
 * - states should always evolve as BLANK -> PARTIAL -> FULL : no coming back!
