Hi all,
There's been a lot of good discussion on this. Extensibility, avoiding
unnecessary rebuilds, preventing missed rebuilds, ensuring checks don't
get re-run every time, etc.
Those are hard issues to get right.
Persistent storage of the non-timestamp checks is another issue that has
been mentioned. Here are three ideas that might help.
