Okie.

Potentially.  This cross-consoldiation/objects moving between
packages/upgrade stuff is seriously complicated.  I'd like to say
unnecessarily so, but I'm nowhere near fluent enough in pkg design to
make that statement.  I'll see if I can whip up a test scenario that
upgrades a BE 'in-one-go' to on-nightly and install-nightly and see if
things turn out alright.  I don't have high hopes, but it might work.

Good point.

Thanks Keith!
