I have a few minor comments on this and plan to re-issue the patch.

It doesn't fully replace MAKEALL yet (e.g currently you need to run
the summarise option in another terminal to see what problems it s
finding while running). But it would be good to get a few more testers
to pass judgement.

Is this in line for 2013.01 or perhaps next?

Regards,
Simon
