Validate and parse input via ncurses Every time a value is changed, parse it to update a value in the background, and possibly refresh checks (eg. node connectivity). This clarifies some phases of each argument's parsing and steps across 3 states (managed by data contents) around attributes (`unparsed` => need to check, `val` => parsed, `line` => ready to display). Node validation can time out after a while over the network, so do that check with an upper boundary on execution time. Also, to avoid inconsistencies on cursor positionment, keep label length constant. do validation of arguments and prepare for execution mode fix small bugs, track node name over menus implement exec section for list action small patches add scan and sync menus implement status in ncurses
Because of how conflicts are transmitted file by file, there's always potential for a delete conflict to happen, where 2 or more hosts have concurrently deleted a file without synchronization. We could _merge_ both deletes and bump the version, but this could run the risk of ignoring trailing conflicts in a transfer. Instead, we go explicit by adding deletion conflict messages to the protocol, and creating empty conflict files when such conflicts are detected. The user then has to delete the conflict file to resolve everything.

Same as #49 but with a cleaner history for merging.
