End of Annotations:=====
The "merge_ids" method of the IdMgr interface should provide an
exception that allows the server to notify the client when two valid
enterprise Ids cannot be merged.
For example, the persons that two enterprise Ids represent may not be
associated in any way and the merge will not be processed.  Or, some
unforseen error in the processing of the transaction occurs.  For both
situations, the server should be able to inform the client that the
merge transaction could not be completed.
