[PATCH v5 00/18] Sequencer for inclusion

Hi,

This is yet another iteration, with few improvements since last time. Some minor nits pointed out by Jonathan and Christian are now fixed.

One additional detail: while playing with my generalized sequencer, I noticed a couple of embarrassing bugs in the tests -- "malformed instruction sheet 1" and "malformed instruction sheet 2" were picking "base..picked" instead of "base..anotherpick". Fixed now.

Thanks.
