Fantastic.
Please find attached an updated patch + commit message. Mostly, I just
went through and did a bit more in terms of updating the documentation
and improving the comments (there were some places that were still
worrying about the chance of a 'stray' backup_label file existing, which
isn't possible any longer), along with some additional testing and
review. This is looking pretty good to me, but other thoughts are
certainly welcome. Otherwise, I'm hoping to commit this tomorrow.
Thanks!
Stephen
