This also seems to reflect a philosophical point that it might be
worth mentioning in the development guide (which is probably overdue
for an overhaul in general).  Namely, Philippe felt it important to
have one patch that completely backed out two or more of my previous
patches, followed by a patch that incorporated a useful part of one of
those patches.

This isn't generally how we've approached things -- we just move
forward incrementally from the tip of the branch.
