	| 
	| <subject> <page x>, <page x>, <page y>

	Since Jade can't know the page numbers, how are you getting this
	much?

Jade knows the page numbers as generated objects. These can only be
compared by general-indirect-sosofo. Is this implemented by Jade? It
seems impossible in the RTF backend.

With general-indirect-sosofo, sorting and removing duplicates would be
trivial.
