Ok, good, because there is code in there to check and fail and it would
be sad if it didn't catch at least some cases.

Yeah, it would be good if someone can come up with a test case that
fails, then we can fix things. Once I get the roster merge conflict
messages stuff done I was thinking of having another look at trying to
deal with workspace conflicts purely in terms of roster merge which
should clean things up and be more robust.
