AFAIK --node does not have any problems, in the contest tree it is
unified with the MPI code and fairly well tested. I could implement
--node for post-Jumbo-6 if people wants it (this will also automatically
split any other cracking mode for node x out of y)
The changes you propose will be a minor pain for me to merge with
magnum-contest and/or it will likely make implementing --node harder
(right now it would be very easy because I keep the contest tree up to
par with bleeding).
