Right. If you change the master count manually with mod-, and mod-. this
will toggle +/- 1 from your manually set master count depending on what the
state was when you changed the master count manually. I don't find that to
be totally off the wall given the spirit of not wanting to have to use
mod-, and mod-.

You could always IncMasterN(-100000) to bring it back to zero and then add
1 or leave it alone depending on the flag setting if you really wanted to.
