Check it out!

Ned provided these great fixes and enhancements:
- enabled load-updates as a background process 
- enabled keeping the various local archives around in memory until all
BFAV windows are closed
- enabled keeping an archive around indefinitely by opening a Keeper
morph from the tiny-menu
- added toggle for groups/individual-posts list view
- improved appearance and resizing of text fields pane
- added support for sorting the archive in different ways (not in menu
yet)
- removed Undeclared refs

And I put in a few fixes and enhancements:
- The BFAV now automatically does a sanity check for gaps in the lists
of posts in the local archive, and attempts to load the missing posts,
every time that it loads updates.  
- There is also a new tiny-menu option called "validate local archive"
that kicks off the same process.
- The "reload post" bug should be fixed with this release.  
- There were a number of minor enhancements for the KCP archive viewer 
unfortunately the sanity check for gaps is still a little buggy.
- There are new Harvester-friendly mouse menu options for viewing:
     * unreviewed contributions
     * reviewed contributions that are not yet approved
     * approved contributions that are not yet in the update stream


There is some cool new functionality in this release, thanks to Ned,
Daniel , Tim, Alejandro and Doug for code, testing, bug reports and
helpful feedback.
