[GSoC update] Sequencer: Debating the UI

Hi,

Frankly, I'm a little worried about not having sent out anything significant since last week -- I've just been bouncing back and fourth trying to decide how to structure the UI. After trying out various forms of --abort, I've decided to drop all UI and just write "infrastructure code" for the moment, and letting end users decide the shortcuts for themselves. Among the various suggestions, I especially liked Jonathan's --edit solution where the user gets a copy of the entire instruction sheet (not just commands left to execute) to edit as she pleases [1]. I've just started working on this. I might like to send a quick series based on my earlier series for inclusion, but I can't figure out a good subset: Everything until "revert: Catch incompatible command-line options early" might be a candidate for a simple revert-cleanup series, but most of the motivation for the cleanup comes from the sequencer needing it.

Thanks for reading.
