They aren't well-enough "battle tested" to make Andrew's point invalid, I think (there *are* no "large" ZODB-based Zope3 sites which have undergone generational upgrades). Frankly, anything which attempts to "fix pickles" in-place smells bad to me. "Dump and reload" is how the RDBMS world handles this kind of problem, and it isn't because they don't have smart folks working on them.
