This is broken. You can basically change "complete" only to false (when it
applies). This could leave some tasks in the old patching state.
Anyway, I like the patch set a lot. It moves our infrastructure to a
proper (I hope so) API and it removes few quirks we have along the way.
I'll play with it some more.
Thanks
Miroslav
