All I'm trying to do is clear up a few of the existing tickets although
right now I'm wonder why I'm bothering. I think you more than most will
understand that feeling =). This one seemed reasonable to me. All it
does is change the colour of the text when there is a conflict and adds
the date of the first conflict.
Your idea is a good one but I'm not going to spend any more time on
this. You are welcome to make any changes you wish if you don't like it :-)
