I understand that very well :)

Ah, good, I had missed that change.  I’ll just adapt the test to check that one-word == include.

I think I won’t add the Manifest._actions attribute as in your patch; it does not cost much to have the list once in manifest and another time in test_manifest.

The only change I’ll make (or maybe you’d like to do it?) before committing is to add a test to make sure the line marked with “this cannot happen” really cannot happen.
