This summs it up really nicely: http://wbyoung.tumblr.com/post/27851725562/core-data-growing-pains
Links to radar bug reports are within the blog post. The conclusion it is not usable does not hold under iOS6, since nested contexts work quite wonderfully there, but it shows problems under iOS5. Generally if you use performBlock and not performBlockAndWhait and do not use a fetched results controller at all and some other tricks, you can get it working quite well also under iOS5, but actually the code you produce is uglier than doing it manually the "old way" using thread confinment and merge by hand. At least in my experience. But under iOS6 nested contexts rock!
