I'll see.  Give me a chance to roll up my sleeves and look.   Hope to
start tonight.


I've got a fairly slick BOM algorithm that I wrote in Java, and want to
jettison that into the eeschema so I can stop maintaining the Java
version.  It reconciles all the field names across parts, and even
collates the common parts into totals as a separate table.  So you have
"one part per line item rows", and then separately you have collated
rows, all in one CSV file.
