Actually, it turns out that I have a cunning plan.

I'm full of cunning plans, in fact. It turns out that I can do merges even
more simply, if I just allow the notion of "state" into an index entry,
and allow multiple index entries with the same name as long as they differ
in "state".

And that means that I can do all the merging in the regular index tree, 
using very simple rules.

Let's see how that works out. I'm writing the code now.
