Yes.  I think that is the most flexible way to go and that is what the
current CVS code is doing.

No, the receiving side (which is what the batch-reading process is)
would not even notice that the list was there unless it ran a --delete
without --delete-excluded.  So, my latest code includes the exclude list
in the BATCH.sh file anytime it was specified, even if it might not be
needed.  This will allow a user to add a --delete into the BATCH.sh file
after the fact or even to edit the list.

I think this implementation makes it easy to re-run the batch (since no
data outside the BATCH.sh and BATCH files is needed) while still being
flexible for "power users" that want to tweak things.
