"dd conv=noerror" should do the same thing?

"watch cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack" seems to be just as powerfull?

hugely convenient, yes please. :)

glancing through the package list the only other thing there which I

rdiff-backup, however I am more a fan of the small-core Fedora so
I won't suggest it.
