Ah. The problem was worsened by a bug in planner-multi that made the
equality test fail for tasks with only one link. I'm really sorry
about the inconvenience. <sheepish grin>

If you had planner-multi loaded but had some single-linked tasks when
you encountered problems with planner-id, then dev/426 might address
it. I've tested it over here by using M-x
planner-id-update-tasks-on-page twice to make sure that
already-updated linked pages aren't marked modified. Seems to work.
planner-save-buffers also does something sane over here.

We have such an amazing community here! I really appreciate how people
have been tracking down this subtle bug... We'll get the blasted
thing!
