The changes themselves look good and complete.

There seem to be other places (such as cdm_renamed and cdm_turdchk)
where the user can get an unsorted view of the active list.  I get why
we're doing this with 'nits', but are there other cases that should be
fixed?

A somewhat off-topic comment: should we really call merge errors
'turds'?  I know that's what the gatekeepers call the problem, but our
developer tools haven't previously used that word, as far as I know.
At least in some places, I think that scatological term might be
somewhat (and needlessly) offensive.

(As for the filter itself, a nit: using a double-negative -- as in
'unmodified=False' -- seems as though it makes the code a bit harder
to read.  But making a readability comment in Python code is probably
raising a moot point anyway.  :->)
