+K12 Mode
+--------
+
+Goal: Port the K12 Mode that Pd-l2ork introduced.
+
+Details: Currently we ship a lot of the K12 abstractions with Purr Data.
+However, I never ported the special mode that starts the program up in a
+"K12" mode that replaces the window/application menubar with a more
+user-friendly, clickable object menu.
+
+That mode makes it easier for beginners to get started. In porting it, we
+can take advantage of the new HTML5 GUI:
+* The menu itself can leverage HTML/CSS to be more responsive, autohide, etc.
+* The entire K12 Mode could itself just be a web-app separate from normal
+  Pd app operation.
+
+To figure out which is best, it's probably helpful to know more about the
+history of K12 mode, and whether the ability to also open and interact with
+normal Pd objects turned out to be an important feature.
+
+Either way, this feature vastly improves the usability of Purr Data for new
+users, giving them a way to quickly generate sounds and experiment with the
+interface.
