Old Russian broadcasts seems to suffer from this issue when multiple pages are transmitted with the same subpage code.
It would be nice to have such feature.
This is also a problem when pages are updated during a broadcast, such as breaking news updates.
In V1, subpages would be compared and only squashed if some percentage of characters (not including whitespace) were a match.
This code was removed when testing showed that the deconvolution algorithm had become good enough to nearly always get the correct subpage code. However, it turns out that often the subpage codes are not broadcast correctly - either every subpage is "0001", or it can be used for another purpose.
The upshot of this is that those broadcasts won't squash correctly in V3 because completely different subpages get squashed together, which ruins them.
So this issue is about forward porting the old algorithm, with an option to turn it on/off.
