Yeah -- I may get to doing this before 0.8, but might not.

If you see what's wrong before I do, by all means fix it =)  I can't think of 
anything right off that would cause it.

This, however, was easy =)  The programinfo wire format wasn't transferring 
the sourceid or the cardid over to the backend.  What I just checked in is 
untested, but should work.  Lemme know if it does/doesn't.

And, I'm quite glad that it's all mostly working for you, too.  Gettin close 
to release time.
