No. I've been working on updating the tests to actually reflect the
current copy and merge behavior on trunk (this is happening on the
fix-log-mergeinfo-tests branch). I hope to have this finished soon.
After that, I'll need to see which tests are failing as a result of the
changes to 'copy' behavior, and then fix them. The filter function was
an ugly hack from the beginning, and I will be happy to see it go.

Understood. I'll see what I can come up with in the next day or two.
