Sorry to raise this thread again, but what was the outcome of this
patch?

Was the general concept of a "solve" tactical rejected, or just the
particular choice of syntax / implementation? (If so, how could it be
improved?) Or have the core developers just been busy? (I apologise if
so!)

I know that the conversion moved on how jEdit might additionally assist
users in determining where a proof script became broken, but I didn't
come to understand why this simple patch would be mutually exclusive to
other more elaborate options.

Cheers,
David
