------------------------------------

[~mreutegg], probably the minimalist of fixes can be like:

What I'm finding harder is to write test cases to create invalid conflicts - 
any pointers?

In the mean time I'm also looking at some code paths in {{checkConflicts}} to 
see if we are covering all cases.

> Merge exception (aka OakMergeXXXX) are often expected when concurrent 
> sessions do conflicting writes. But in some occasions, we've seen bugs in oak 
> which also lead to merge exception.
> This creates confusion during investigation to isolate if it's an issue in 
> oak or a genuine concurrent conflict.
> It'd be useful if the exception message has information to distinguish that.
