Imagine if you were half way through the puzzle when the cutover happened, and then you lost your entire puzzle state and the board was reset. For the die-hard crossword players, this would be devastating.
Thanks! I think the next step is allowing the app to be a middleware, distributed via npm, so that adding a .plan to any project is as easy as app.get('/', plan);

I teach a series of classes about the web for designers, and this is a great start. It may not be perfect, but in terms of a basic intro to express common structures to anyone with a background in any other language (for example, my students all know php) it's a good summary, and an appropriate bare-bones jumping-off-point into more specific topics.
We've thought about making the white-list functionality time-based, but the need hasn't come up for our internal use. The product version of this would have greatly expanded features though, if we make one.
