A good point. Bear in mind, of course, that this would likely
only happen right after installing a new server. With proper
use of a source code repository, even that shouldn't happen.

So while the results are really bad, the probability of 
the problem arisin seem relatively low.

That said, I'll see about implementing it so it can be used
at any level, for those who want to use it that way.
