I think it would be good to have a comment above here defining what a set is (we
still refer to sets in a couple comments) and why we we currently ignore the
possibility of sets.

I'm trying to remove the concept of conflict sets from our code base.  The
concept of hiearchy  conflicts is easier to understand, so we should use it
instead.  I intend to delete all comments referring to them, so let me know if
you find any.  

I could add a comment explaining why we don't try to process the hierarchy and
non-blocking/encryption conflicts here.  Alternatively, I could rename the
function to "ResolveSimpleConflicts()".  What do you think?

Remove first

Done.

There are lots of indentation changes because I removed an if statement, but
otherwise the code on the left and right side of this diff should be identical.
