Actually, it would be nice to never expose labels starting with ".merge_file_" - cogito should provide more meaningful labels instead.

If you prefer, I'll submit a minimal patch to 0017-alice-bob-fixup.ed instead. Once ".merge_file_" is gone, the "tutorial" testsuite would check that such labels never appear again.
