I hit upon the following problem when using QROMB. The routine that
is being integrated used to get its parameters via keywords.
Well, QROMB is not only oblivious but hostile to that, as it does
not support _extra keywords. Thus my solution was to use the venerable
common block.
I'll put in a request to RSI to allow the _extra behavior to QROMB and other
such routines.
Any other suggestions before I do that?

Make that _REF_EXTRA so the function can return information to the
calling routine. Should be added to all routines that call user code,
including the widget routines.

Two suggestions:
(1) Allowing the user-supplied function to accept _EXTRA keywords would also
be useful for other programs, such as QSIMP, QROMO, LMFIT and SVDFIT
(2) All these programs could be many times faster, if the user -supplied
functions were allowed to be vectorized! It goes against all my IDL
training to have to write functions that must a accept a scalar input and
return a scalar value.
