Understood, thank you, Chris!

In the end I used a promise, which is almost the same thing.

I have another question, though.

Is it possible to use the facilities offered by the db.tuples vocab from within 
a thread?

When I try to call `ensure-table`, I get the `no-defined-persistent` exception, 
even if I call `define-persistent` on the same class earlier in the same thread.

Is this a principal limitation, or it should be possible and I'm doing 
something wrong? I can post a minimal example code if it helps.
