This may be a baby problem, but here goes:  Is there any possible way
to skip levels while backtracking?  By this I mean that if I run into
a problem at level 4 and realize that level 2 is causing the problem,
is there anyway that I can go directly to level 2 without having level
3 exhaustively fail first?

I have some ideas of how to solve the problem, but am interested in
other peoples opinions.
