Thanks.  If others have more issues and considerations to share,
please do.

I think the next step is indeed to come up with a model for handling
these issues.  If we cannot come up with a single model for
everything, we could try 2 models (a-la your "multi break" command).

Maybe a useful interim step would be reworking the description you
posted into a concise list of broad use case classes and issues that
need to be solved in each class.  We can then brainstorm possible
solutions against that list.
