One thing Ingo and I chatted about was the AI.  We seem to agree on an
'arrow-map' method where the track is broken into segments with each
segment assigned an arrow, the properties of which dicate how the AI
karts make decisions on that section of the track.

What's the plan on this?  Who is implementing it?  How will it be
implemented?  And how will track builders generate these arrow maps?
