What is the status of the planned "file sutures"? Are they related to the
new conflicts functionality? I am asking mainly because they could fix a
really annoying problem with "pluck" IIUC: that if you pluck a revision
which introduces a file, monotone does not recognize it as the same file
as the original one and subsequent pluck which modify this file will fail.
