Folks, Feel free to send any of these patches in my direction, by the way. I'm more than willing to incorporate any sensible changes into the journal-related scripts. I'll take a closer look at this patch tomorrow afternoon. My original idea was that copy-to-journal was "strictly" for use in scripted environments; a school, say, would want to preload data into all of the laptops for the kids via SSH injection. I put quotes around "strictly" because obviously that isn't really the case. I have no problems with making copy-*-journal more friendly for day-to-day use.
