No one made me back out the ClientDelete command.  I did it because most of 
the rest of the group didn't like it.   Since I didn't discuss it on the list 
before implementing it, I didn't have any right to check it in in the first 
place.  I now regret using the overly rhetorical phrase "under protest".  All 
I meant by that is that I didn't concede the validity of the arguments 
against it.

While I remain unconvinced  by Ian't technical arguments, the legal one 
reposted on CofE yesterday is compelling.  There are other ways to do 
insertion validation that would be just as good and wouldn't have the legal 
risks.

If there is support for a "nonlocal"  flag on ClientGet that causes keys to 
be removed  from the local store before retrieving them, I'll implement it 
next week.  Whatever I do, I will make sure there is consensus on the list 
*before* checking in the code.
