Hey Fred,

I think what Seth is asking for is an option to delete /all/ cuts in a
cart, and then (at a later time) load the cart up with several cuts, and
*not* delete each cut before importing a new one. This is more complex
than a simple checkbox (i.e., binary) option. Because, how would
Rivendell know, without setting some kind of schedule, when to drop cuts
and when to leave cuts?

*My* opinion on this is that it wouldn't be appropriate to change
Rivendell to support this -- Rivendell is already flexible enough to
support the few cases in which people want to do it.

Hope this helps clarify!
