    So the problem I was having was related to the interplay between 
`PathRetractionStrategy` and `MatchPredicateStrategy`. You can't have 
`PathRetractionStrategy` without `MatchPredicateStrategy`.
    
    The test that fails is:
    
    
    ```
    g.V().match(
      as("a").in("sungBy").as("b"),
      as("a").in("writtenBy").as("c"),
      as("b").out("writtenBy").as("d"))
        .where(as("c").out("sungBy").as("d"))
        .where(as("d").has("name", "Garcia"));
    ```
    
    If I take out `MatchPredicateStrategy` in the TinkerPop computer suite and 
only have `PathRetractionStrategy`, the test fails.
    
    If you could figure out how to make it so this dependency doesn't exist, 
that would be great. Again, this is a `GraphComputer` execution (and it also 
happens with `GraphActors`).

> We've seen this specifically for labels used in the until modulator of repeat 
> but I suspect it happens for other modulators as well. Here's a test case:
> {code}
> graph = TinkerGraph.open()
> g = graph.traversal()
> g.addV().as("first").repeat(addE("next").to(addV()).inV()).times(5).addE("next").to(select("first")).iterate()
> g.V().limit(1).as('z').out().repeat(store('seen').out().where(without('seen'))).until(where(eq('z')))
> {code}
> complains there is no z-key
> I tired to fix it myself and submit a pull request but I found the 
> implementation of PathRetractionStrategy confusing.
> One thing I noticed is that it seems the set of labels a step needs present 
> in order to work properly is determined external to the steps and that code 
> includes a lot of type-tests. If that logic were pushed down into the step 
> implementations I think fixing the repeat case would be easier and it would 
> be possible for extension steps to work properly with this strategy 
> (currently it seems they can't because of the closed-world assumption 
> inherent in the type-casing).
