Hi all,
As a bottom line statement, I think it's clear that:
1) khmer should not generally be modifying sequence names;
2) where it does, it should explicitly say so;
3) where it's necessary, there should be warnings.
4) we should document all of this anyway, even though it's clear that
most users don't read the docs :)
Sure, there are lots of hacks we can put in place but bitter experience
suggests that these will simply cause more problems in the long run.
