    1. COLike I said, while often attributed to JWZ, the quote itself has been around for longer, and wasn't about regular expressions prior to JWZ's usage. Given the history of the quote, I think it's still a valid paraphrase. I wasn't intending to claim JWZ was talking about the problems of threads. As I see it, the quote is about someone taking a cool tool and trying to apply it to too broad a set of problems, and creating more challenges than they solved.

    2. COLooking at your update showing how you fixed the problem, I'm not quite sure why doing it my way made a difference. In the context I had used this trick, the items I was storing didn't have a suitable ToString implemented, and it wasn't feasible to add one, so my wrapper had a separate property for the text to return. In your case, if the object already had a suitable ToString, simply adding it to the list box should have worked without any extra effort.

    3. COTo clarify, I've been playing with this on a test repo before doing anything on our main repo, so I can try different approaches, and have smaller sets of changes. Your suggestion seems to work, but feels clumsy. I'd initially thought this would require manually going through the list of all the changes twice, once to back it out of the trunk, and a second time to put it all back in. I then realized that to put it back in all I need to do is reverse the one commit where it was all taken out after the branch was copied. It still feels a bit clumsy to me, but should be workable.
