How about the scenario in the other thread. I copy a directory
containing files: the new items have WORKING nodes but no BASE nodes.
That's what happens at present and it seems to be correct.

Now I delete one of the copied files; what should happen is that the
WORKING node gets modified to have WORKING.presence=not-present and
there is still no BASE node. That's not quite what happens at present
and it appears to be a bug.

What happens if I add something to replace the deleted file? Does the
WORKING node somehow record both the original copy and the new add?
There doesn't seem to be enough information stored: how would it cope
with the node kind changing for example?
