Well, console#4294967295 *did* actually work before this patch started
using -1 to mean something different. But yes, I've already moved that
into the previous patch.

dedeuplication needs to happen on the *frontend* nodes, since a given
frontend can be powered by a backend of different types, or in
different driver domains.
