The problem here is exactly what I reported a few days ago: when populating the stores from Domain.xml, slide inserts these temporary permissions (which isn't a problem by itself). However, due to changes in this code, they are _only_ removed by rolling back a transaction. Please, don't suggest using MySQLDescriptorsStore. Slide itself _requires_ transactions to work with any degree of correctness or reliability (that decision has been clearly made, and is reasonable, it'd be a LOT of work to do things differently). Merely turning off transactions so that it looks like you don't need them doesn't actually fix the problem at all. Michael
