Eh? What is this refactor? What changes in the RA interface are needed?

Eek. That is a "target path" or something. It is not a "switch" path. We
don't want to imply that the path is only for switches. It is a generic
argument to specify a second path for the delta operation.
Please think in the abstract, rather than in your concrete case :-)

The comment should be independent of the "working copy". This is about
generating a delta which describes a way to change the reported state into a
different PATH/REV.

It would be nice to not propagate the stringbuf types on new code.

We really shouldn't be talking in terms of client operations, but in terms
of what the API actually does/performs.
