(I did say that it would be trivial to query lore.kernel.org from a Python
script, which is absolutely correct.  I did *not* say that the whole thing,
including the local index if querying lore.kernel.org directly is not scalable
enough, would be trivial.  Just that it's *possible*, and there do not seem to
be any technical blockers...)
