 We don't in this case (yet) but we sometimes do.  A little odd, I agree,
 but the shortest path to a decent outcome.

 Let's _not_ treat it as append-only!  Put the final state of affairs at
 the top; if there is some illuminating history then dump it at the end
 clearly labelled. If not illuminating, discard it.  We have too many out
 of date and misleading wiki pages!
