 - And actually I'm not entirely sure about the order of filtering before tokenizing, etc...
 - Ah, I see that `charFilter` must be before the tokenizer because it works on a stream, whereas `filter` operates on tokenized input so it must come after the tokenizer

+- This cookie could be set by a user clicking a link in a privacy policy, for example
+- The additional Javascript could be easily added to our existing `googleAnalytics` template in each XMLUI theme
