I've modified the importer to assemble consolidation incorporations based on data in the import files. I'd appreciate comments on this code -- I'd very much like to put this back together with a set of import file modifications into 127.

And, a few questions to guide the rest of my changes:

- Should I copy every import file I modify into the 127 directory, or modify them where they are? David?

- I'd like these to be installed by default. I can either do an (I'm guessing) install gate putback. Or, I can wait until the sat solver wad gives me nested incorporations and have entire drag them in. If I wait, the on repo users will have to manually install them all in the meantime, which might be ok, though a bit annoying. Opinions?


Code looks fine... did you want to add any metadata to the packages
as a result? ie

set name=pkg.consolidation value=ON

This may be useful, and certainly would facilitate the creation
of incorporations later on...

Alternatively, you could just stick these in the import files
(w/ a prepended add) and read this data in the importer.... up
to you.
