 * In writing a plugin is there a way to generate pages/posts without using the 
   admin interface? That is, can we create pages/posts through the WordPress API?
   And is there an easy way to do this? I want the method to be generic, and this
   should be plain since I’m writing a plugin.
 * I’ve considered opening and appending to .htaccess as a tactic, but I really 
   cannot assume it exists in the wild (not generic enough). Plus, I’d like pretty
   URLs that mask. Hence, why I ask.
 * Thanks!
 * Cheers,
