  Yeah, adgar and I spent a long time (and then martinvonz and I did too, I think) trying to figure out how to emit ellipsis deltas, and slowly we reached the conclusion that it wasn't easy, and given that we could assume a big pipe from server to client, we punted. It _might_ be a solvable problem, but it may cost a prohibitive amount of CPU time.
