Thanks for the heads-up, Jono... I tried updating the other day, and
Bazaar Explorer tells me I'm already on a "divergent" branch :-P so
what I'm doing is just what you say - keep as much of the new code as
possible outside bin/acire and its .ui file. That will make merging
easier for me just before uploading for merge proposal. I'm still
refactoring/writing new code/testing and debugging, so merge proposal
is a few days away yet (had some other things take up time, so haven't
put in as much time as I'd like on Acire). My paying work cycle starts
on the 8th (to the 21st) so I intend to have this feature merged (or
at least proposed) by then, since I'll most likely be unable to work
on the project at all during those days.

Thanks,
Ed.
