[Grok-dev] Grok and database generations

[Sebastian Ware]

I have been looking at the zope.app.generations package. For those  
who don't know about it, generations keeps track on your objects. The  
generations schema manager allows you to execute an evolve method in  
order to update objects to a required level of functionality. To  
determine which objects to update ituses a counter.

However, my most usual use case is that I have added some new default  
values to the __init__ method of a class and I want to update all the  
objects of that class to reflect this change. But I want to do this  
without having to write any extra code. I just want to sync my  
objects...

Is there any simple and smart way I could do this?

If not, would this not be an excellent feature to add to Grok?
