There are a few other students interested in this one too.  One of the
things I've encouraged them to do is work on a patch to add a few tests
for Ledger-CLI now to get used to the project.

I think johnw, the maintainer of Ledger-CLI, might agree with you. :)

I'm agnostic on this issue.  I think whichever student works on this
task will have a lot of input.  Feel free to include your thoughts on
