You mean what I am planning for Palapeli's patterns? There is an editor for 
such "regular patterns" in trunk/playground/games/palapeli/editor, and I hope 
to get an algorithm for it done during Akademy's coding marathon. If it works 
out, that code could be reused for KMines.

P.S. The editor is difficult to understand if you do not have the vision of 
the end product as I have. There is a README which tells you how everything 
is supposed to work, and I hope it is understandable.
