* Add more vocabulary
* Add more grammar rules
* General clean and tighten :-)

Can do. Will do. Did do. Will be in the next release.

Err, that's tricky, since Coy needs to set things up as it loads. Hmmmm. I
suppose you could pass a hash with the inline data to "use Coy":
use Coy {
noun => {
wookie =>
{
category => [ Sentient ],
sound => [ "roars", "grunts", "bellows" ],
act =>
{
sits => { location => Arborial },
fights => { minimum => 2,
association => "argument",
},
},
},
},
};
I'll see what I can do.

Yes, this is needed and not too hard to add.

Always? How about randomly sometimes?

I certainly agree. Objects are *high* on the ToDo list.

Yes, this is also on the ToDo list.

Yes, this would be part of allowing new locations (see below).
