 The process for [http://plan.wordcamp.org/helpful-documents-and-templates
 /create-wordcamp-badges-with-gravatars/ creating Gravatar badges for
 WordCamp attendees] is kind of clunky and is more work for organizers than
 it should be. There are steps of the process that we can automate to make
 it easier for them.

 Basically, we should make it so that all they have to do is visit a page
 in the Admin Panels, enter a few options, and then hit submit. Then they
 should get a .zip file containing everything they need to take into
 InDesign.

 1) Generate better CampTix attendee CSV, that only has the data needed.
 Let them customize which data fields to include.
 2) Take the generated CSV and runs the script to slurp Gravatars and
 generate the final CSV. Prompt for the filesystem path they want to use.
 Send zip file.

 After this is done, the documentation should be updated to reflect the new
 process.

 In terms of architecture, my initial thought would be to build an
 independent plugin that extends the CampTix_Addon class.
