Ok cool, I look forward to reading it :)

One thing, when you say route requests to specific instances .. does that
imply that node relationships can't span instances ?

e.g. say if node 1 and was connected (at depth 1 or deeper) to a node that
was stored in another instance would the neo4j path/traversal api work
across the split ?
