Agreed. The "moving" emphasis is wrong.
Maybe the correct solution is to

Yes. I advocated for some time aligning Cayenne context API with JPA
in this respect, that defines two methods for sucking a non-
persistent object graph into a context - "persist", which is roughly
the same as "registerNewObject", and "merge", which is somewhat
similar to "localObject", but works recursively.
