Comment:

 This looks very good. One thing that I am not clear on is how well mapping
 the '!' in a reaction to a 'modifiers' node will work in practice, since
 it's easy to forget to check for that.

 How about introducing four additional status values for the negated
 reaction, i.e. in addition to 'success', 'notfound', 'unavail' and
 'tryagain' have 'failure', 'found', 'avail' and '???' (no idea what
 '!tryagain' does)

 To do that, you'd need to use something like Build.xchg for each of the
 status values and consider '! SUCCESS' as one token.
