//
// General format info...
//
// Version format:
// 	<major>.<minor>
//
// Major version changes mean a significant incompatibility.
//
// Minor version changes mean some detail changed and can be handled
// by it's specific handler seamlessly. Backwards compatible.
//
//
// For more info see:
// 	DATA			- main data
// 	IMAGES			- image data
// 	MARKED			- marks data
// 	BOOKMARKS		- bookmarks data
// 	BOOKMARKS_DATA	- bookmarks metadata
// 	TAGS			- tag data
//
//
// Data format change history:
// 	3.0	- Gen4 DATA format, introduced several backwards incompatible 
// 		changes:
// 			- added ribbon GIDs, .ribbons now is a gid indexed object
// 			- added .ribbon_order
// 			- added .base ribbon
// 			- ribbons are now sparse in memory but can be compact when
// 			  serialized.
// 			- auto-convert from gen1 (no version) and gen3 (2.*) on load
// 	2.3 - Minor update to sorting restrictions
// 			- now MARKED and BOOKMARKS do not need to be sorted 
// 			  explicitly in json, they are now sorted as a side-effect 
// 			  of being sparse.
// 			  This negates some restrictions posed in 2.1, including 
// 			  conversion of 2.0 data.
// 			  NOTE: TAGS gid sets are still compact lists, thus are 
// 			  		actively maintained sorted.
// 			  		...still thinking of whether making them sparse is
// 			  		worth the work...
// 	2.2 - Minor update to how data is handled and saved
// 			- now DATA.current is saved separately in current.json,
// 			  loading is done from current.json and if not found from
// 			  data.json.
// 			  the file is optional.
// 			- data, marks, bookmarks, tags are now saved only if updated
// 	2.1 - Minor update to format spec,	
// 			- MARKED now maintained sorted, live,
// 			- will auto-sort marks on load of 2.0 data and change 
// 			  data version to 2.1, will need a re-save,
// 	2.0 - Gen3 data format, still experimental,
// 			- completely new and incompatible structure,
// 			- use convertDataGen1(..) to convert Gen1 to 2.0 
// 			- used for my archive, not public,
// 			- auto-convert form gen1 on load...
// 	none - Gen1 data format, mostly experimental,
// 			- has no explicit version set,
// 			- not used for real data.
//
//
// NOTE: Gen1 and Gen3 refer to code generations rather than data format
// 		iterations, Gen2 is skipped here as it is a different project 
// 		(PortableMag) started on the same code base as ImageGrid.Viewer
// 		generation 1 and advanced from there, back-porting some of the 
// 		results eventually formed Gen3...
