hyatt: yeah i'd like it better if we just resolved backwards
[3:09pm] hyatt: then we wouldn't even need this 
[3:09pm] hyatt: but that's slightly harder.
[3:09pm] hyatt: resolving backwards involves keeping a hash of set property ids
[3:10pm] hyatt: and ignoring them as you keep going back
[3:10pm] hyatt: smfr: we should file a bug about doing that
[3:11pm] hyatt: then all this code[1] can be removed
