Its starting to get rather Arkish

Alpha6 is really getting there. We can list applicible topics and that means we have at least a crude form of applicitive context. Name resolution is not too far away.

One thing I did not do is include LSecs in the topics list. LSecs are a part of a topic, they are not a topic. Lets have a ls command for listing applicible LSecs. Of course, LSecs should still be used for name resolution. (Exception: when the parent of an LSec is an LSec, it is (at the moment) still included in the topics list. That should probably be changed.)

--LedgerSections (LSecs), Remarks and Transactions are all first-class user objects, but they are not full-blown roles/topics.

Right now the applicitive context is pretty primitive. Its is only ancestors and their children. But give it time, and it will get quite complex. So its good to start looking at this code now if you ever want to understand it. :-)
