Thanks for the review Jian. Much appreciated. Apologies for the multiple email 
threads - just my email client mucking up the threads. This should hopefully

One question - why break out the OnConflictSet/ActionState rename to a separate 
commit? Previously, it only did Set (in update) so it’s naming did make sense.
