Why do not change a bit both /manifest and code accepted by '--manifest' to have something consistent and human friendly? (Even if successive transactions will produce an unavoidable mess to /manifest.) Well, I do not see why there is 2 different syntax/semantic; one for /manifest and another one for the code accepted by '--manifest'. Except, it is some pieces of work to modify the actual code. :-) Cheers, simon
