Does the forum-backup detect merges?

E.g., this thread was originally started by SIT (now post #4).
Later were three posts of Jmailman merged into the thread, because
they were posted in the LKMM-thread, but belongs to this thread.
As Jmailman's post have a lower post-id, they are now on top of the thread.

If you now would parse the thread after the merge there would be no update detected,
because forum-backup parses the thread for the latest update.
Therefore the new added/merged posts wouldn't be saved, right?

If the above is correct, wouldn't it make sense, to compare the whole thread using the
post-id's, to detect updates, or would this be to time consuming?

Wouldn't this procedure solve the problem with Deleted Posts too?
