I'm having a hard time using read.

I find myself using it in 2 places:

1. Inside the event handler, I want to read, optionally do something
with the value (typically assoc/dissoc), and put it on a channel.

2. Inside a go block initialized during will-mount, same story.

The problem is that I do a read, pass the value along, and then when
the other end of the channel wants to do an operation, I get the
"Cannot manipulate cursor outside of render phase" error.

If I turn the value into a string before putting it on the channel, I
don't get the error.

Is this a laziness issue? A bug, or desired behavior? In any case, I
find it confusing.

Now, here is a leading question: What is the difference between a
cursor and a reference type?

Instead of having both (value x) and (read x f), why not just @x?

As this question suggests, I also don't understand why both value and
read are necessary.
