+     rhuijben: While the new feature of allowing the resolving of individual
+     properties is not a release blocker to me, the known buggy behavior of
+     the current code that may cause unuexpected loss of properties and
+     conflict data is.
+     .
+     The part of the patch that enables the new feature is very small
+     compared to the part that fixes the issue, and the regression 
+     test would be at least tree times harder to write and review without
+     enabling the resolving of individual property conflicts.
+     .
+     Note that not being able to resolve individual property conflicts
+     on update/switch/merge is a regression against 1.7.x, where we didn't
+     switch to resolving after the update completed yet.
