From what I can see, the changes would best be done by making the
unstacking logic look to see if there was a balancing </pre> which might be
out of order. That's what I plan to investigate - a hybrid of the
Fote/Klaus approaches.
2.7.2's code does something like that, but I did not see signs of the
bookkeeping which I would expect if 2.7.2 were doing exactly that - so
either I've missed that detail, or it uses a simplification which usually
amounts to the same thing.
In any case, that's post-2.8 work...
