@ H.G.:

I'm curious if you think that this CV would be fairly suitable to make a Play-Test Applet generated preset for, given the rules the CV has regarding the 4 kings each side have. That is, if from an interactive diagram that used no special modifications in making it (beyond accommodating no-castling rule for kings), would a generated preset announce checkmate if two or more kings were in check at once, and not all the kings could get out of check on the next move?

This CV has not proven popular on Game Courier so far, so there's probably no rush that I need have to make such a preset, even if it seemed quite easy to do.
