actually, the semantics of import_() are much more equivalent to hibernate's merge(), not update(). now update() makes more sense to me.

since I desperately want this to just be done, i am considering just throwing on very similar versions of load(), merge(), save(), update (), saveOrUpdate(), delete(), as described in http:// www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/reference/en/html/objectstate.html , complete with the same exception cases and everything (i think).

however now we have the whole issue of descending to child objects too, which was previously nicely handled by the thread-local get_session() method. hibernate does a lot of extra work that we now have to implement, complete with all the cascade styles, etc: http:// www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/reference/en/html/ objectstate.html#objectstate-transitive .... so this is basically a huge pain in the ass.

to me, the method means, "this is an object I loaded from some other Session and now I want it to be in this Session", thats why I like "import"...it implies youre "taking it from somewhere else and putting it here".

adopt?
