I think it's odd that conflict resolution depends on log entries.  I
think it would be much more valuable if conflict reporting would save
the details of the conflict to some kind of conflict logging table.
How exactly are we expecting that users would bring the data from the
log file to a database row, when they are to be merged?  What happens if
there are bytea columns in the table?
