I looked at this some: strokes 'merge': you get the union of all adds and deletions.
The only question concerns updates.
It may well be possible to update strokes by using eraser to erase part of an existing one. I'll have to test this. But I think it is going to be same situation as updating a text note for a book: the last change to the note 'wins' (sync time, or edit time? there's a case to be made for either approach).
I have not tried new, deleted, and re-ordered page scenarios. Adds and deletes will merge, but which re-ordering 'wins'?
Will do more testing.
