It wasn't actually meant as an April Fool's joke. I've had enough of 
those for today. :)

It was a well-meant response to someone's (Jimbo's? Brion's?) question 
that was asked here about a month ago or so, seeking something Wikimedia 
have invented that they could patent (but then still allow people to use 
freely, of course) for the sole purpose of making fun of the patenting 
system.
