- Lots to do to cut down on unnecessary .save() calls to avoid hitting the db so much. SHould
  speed it up noticably. 
 
- Obscure bug in the *team inheritance and rootblock initialization needs tracking down
  
- Learn to use Django .select_related() and .prefetch_related() to speed things up
  https://zerotobyte.com/how-to-use-django-select-related-and-prefetch-related/
        
- LoadSurvexFile() Creates a new current survexfile and valid .survexdirectory
        The survexblock passed-in is not necessarily the parent. FIX THIS.
        
- Finish writing the parse_one_file() function for survexfiles edited online. Perhaps
  easier if this is a completely new file rather than an existing file.. nasty.
        
- When Olly implements LEG in the  'dump3d --legs' utility, then we can use that to get the length of
  all the legs in a survex block instead of adding them up oursleves. Which means that we can
  ignore all the  Units and offset stuff, that troggle will work with survex files with backsights,
  repeated readings from distox etc.. Not actually useful for pre 2022 survey data, 
  but good future-proofing.
  Also it will be a tiny bit more accurate as these leg lengths are after loop closure fixup.
