This appears to imply that there exists a multitude of other possible sources, but it's not made clear what those are or how to make use of them. Does it support reading input from… files? TCP sockets? IRC messages?? This appears to imply that there exists a multitude of other possible sources, but it's not made clear what those are or how to make use of them.

Should this be placed in a RATIONALE section?
