Yes, i know that we can manage in our application logic inconsistent 
situations, but we'd like to know the rational behind these intentional design 
constraint.
With transaction it's obvious that coding should be easier.

Thanks in advance

OK, so first of all this has *nothing* to do with the RDB persistence in 
particular; it applies to all persistence modes of OAK.

Furthermore, I don't agree this is a "major" problem. Yes, there are certain 
sequences that can't be done atomically; this is intentional design constraint 
of Oak (of now). It's not entirely clear to me why this isn't something that 
application logic can't deal with.

Best regards, Julian
