Hrmm, tracefile good, it would show which flags are set in the field format

Think think think... it must be something other than what you're thinking,
Mike, cause I know what you are thinking (field resequencing). It annoyed
me a while back that we weren't implementing it because if it ended up causing
a problem, it would've taken me forever to actually pinpoint the problem, so
I put a few well-placed asserts. No-one ever complained, so I assume that
field resequencing is no longer in use. It doesn't even happen when
connecting to a System/36 (even though I don't have one network-accessible
any more).

Hmm, I wonder if the problems aren't just one problem - for example, all fields
with the same "sequence" number are 1 continuous entry field.
