I could even return the whole pickled data structure, and you could do
whatever you wanted with it, it has all the information.  There's one
wrinkle, where I was lazy and I pickled a Python object instead of a
plain tuple, so I'll have to modify the code to use the tuple instead
of a timestamp object. It'll require bumping up the data structure
version number, and reindexing of the catalog.
