I'm prepared to have it reverted like it was on the 2.8.x branch. I'll
revert the revert in a branch and try to fix them. I'm working with the app
harness currently and it depends on the DataResource work, but I don't
think it depends crucially on it. Even if it is vital, I could still fix it
up in a branch and use that for our app harness work.

It's not hard to revert it and put it back later, so I think we should go
with that. I'll push it again when it's actually fixed. I agree with you
that the unit tests are a good idea, as well.

Joe, can you give me some test cases where it's failing? Is there a bug? I
don't have a clear sense of the cases where it crashes or does the wrong
thing.
