Actually, now that I see how many people really dislike CVS's conflict
markers, I'm ready to withdraw the idea of supporting them directly
(was anyone else as virulently in favor as I was?).

Sticking with the .rej files is fine with me, *especially* if we have
a separate tool that can produce a conflict-markered file, given all
the relevant data (i.e., you invoke the tool on a single wc path, it
knows how to find text-base, rej file, etc).
