So, as far as I can tell, the interface is going to remain the same
from the perspective of most commands. The only tweak I expect in what
I have now is that the .text() and .fastdelta() methods on manifest
classes will need some way to return the expected object hash, so that
can be passed on to the revlog layer, and we might need to do some
clever hash-function-injection into the lower layer as well.

Does that answer your question?
