11690. They may depend on a few changes posted earlier (and not in the
tree, yet), and I also didn't specifically check whether they would conflict
with any of the few changes I always do right away after snapshotting
the tree. There shouldn't be many conflicts, though. I didn't do that
because the intention was mainly to have people look at the conceptual
aspects, since, as I pointed out, things don't fully work, yet (though for
the problem mentioned yesterday I already know the fix, I just wasn't
able to implement this so far as I was given a higher priority job for today).

Jan
