I was busy fixing bug until now. I added Kai's legacy oceantiles.dat lookup, so legacy tiles look about right. I made the lowzoom tile stitcher always use the captionless layer as source tiles, and lowzoom tiles will only be  stitched together if there are new tilesets from the last 2 days and the lowzoom tileset is older than the tileset file.

I am quite happy now with it actually, and would be ready to switch. So, there is nothing specifically that prevents me from throwing the switch but the fear that things might break horribly. (at which point it should be easy to switch back, theoretically)
