I am going to try to merge my fit generator series today.

One issue I notice is that the conversion to use entry_Section changes
the contents of the self._fit_entries dict. Before it was keyed by
relative path, but entry_section keys self._entries by node name.

We may need to split it up. I will see if I can at least merge my
series, which should not make things any worse, then see if I can come
up with ideas.

Thanks for the diff.

Simon
