I do like that, but is it possible to give a unit
multiple (auto-upgrade-to) properties?  You know,
like:

(unit college-student (auto-upgrade-to dropout)
(auto-upgrade-to wageslave) (auto-upgrade-to
engineer))

(table auto-upgrade-chance
   (college-student dropout 5000)
   (college-student wageslave 3000)
   (college-student engineer 2000)
)

Though the example's meant to be funny (dropout is
probably a wreck-type), the point is that you could
give units multiple paths based on the new table.

Sure, sounds great, but before you leave...
