Is that like Linux's "holy penguin pee"?
Anyway, I completely agree with you here, but how about instead of
--opposite, use --source (with --reverse). It would be more intuitive
since it operates precisely on the files listed by inventory --source.
It would also have the advantage of being able to apply patches in the
normal direction without touching patch-logs.
