Hi, I'll jump in here and say we've made some batch changes via the web 
interface, about 100 lines or so, and the changes finished fine, but Apache 
timed out the proxy connection. We obviously need to tinker a bit with those 
settings. However, now that I know we can load from the command line (I really 
should RTFM more often :-) I think we may adjust our workflow a bit, especially 
if any large batches need to be completed.
