But that needs to be registered separately anyway, because this varies on
the storage back-end. The object-db mapping should never be in the object

And what about classes that can be stored in various backends? For
example, in tiOPF the same class can be stored in CSV, Tab delimited,
XML or any SQL DB - all with a compiler define or parameter to the
application at runtime. Also, foreign keys and primary keys don't mean
anything to XML, CSV etc...
That's what I meant with 'this varies on the storage back-end.'... :-)
