Also, it sets the "dirty" flag on your patch, so you can't really use it
in abstractions, which is very annoying since it's stops us doing really
cool dynamically resizing GOP abstractions. Unless you don't mind
re-saving your abstractions every time you use them (bleh). This is a
great pity since it is almost possible to do really cool stuff like hide
complicated parts of your subpatches with a toggle button. Oh well.

Chris.
