I think deleted is something other than what you think it is. In
particular, it is *not* the same as schedule delete. The reason I
changed this to use descriptive words is that, most often, the boolean
flags will be false and therefore absent from the entries file. The
same holds for the values of schedule; normal scheduling is marked by
an absent field (or empty if you prefer). The exception here is
has-props, which indicates that there are versioned properties
associated with an entry. This means that we've increased the entries
file size with some percents, but that's a price I find worth paying
for debuggability.

Best,
//Peter
