As I pointed out in another mail, it's not the bit that is complex - we 
already have that: a node can be present in a manifest or not, that's 
effectively the bit.

What we do not have currently, is a cache of the corresponding markings. To be 
more precise: we don't have pointers to the (obviously marked) revisions in 
which a node died.
