Thanks a lot!

Oh, and there are of course some suggestions for eventual 0.3 :-)

Allow -p's option to be a (e.g. comma-separated) list
of techniques which will be used (but not the others)
Perhaps also an "inverse"-syntax: "all but ..."

Some "very verbose" flag, that will cause the grid to be shown
after each applied technique (and a very very verbose: after each
newly filled cell.)
