Glory glory hallelujah!

Next time my datastore tosses its cookies what should I do? What
information do you need? I'd like to help however possible.

Not a bad idea. Did Tavin get hit by a bus or something?

>  - We reimplement it

If someone else is working on a native datastore then I would suggest
letting them do their thing while we figure out what's wrong with the
current datastore. The question should be this: Is Tavin's design good and
worth salvaging or is it poorly designed and bound to be full of problems
forever?

Isn't a single file datastore quite hard to debug? I'm always a fan of not
reinventing the wheel so it would seem wise to let native filesystems do
as much as possible.
