Yep, I can. The reason the flat text files have to go is that they are written in the old text renderers syntax which is not compatible to the new one. Changing all of them to using Lua's programmatic interface means that we can change the syntax that these Lua methods create once and have it use the new renderer everywhere.

That is why the plain text files have to die: we cannot kill the old rich text rendering system otherwise.
