Actually, sometimes I would like to switch to the next generation ("-roll- forward", in a sense): I install something, go back with "--roll-back", and might like to go just one forward again. So how about the following: --switch-generation=1 goes to generation 1; --switch-generation=-1 goes 1 generation back; --switch-generation=+1 goes one generation forward. Andreas
