Regret to confirm that Jim is correct.  What's on the branch is a first cut
at defining the new *interfaces*, and a toy implementation of these
interfaces in a test file, intended to clarify subtleties and iron out
problems before ZODB proper is changed.  There are no changes in "the real"
(non-test-suite) ZODB code yet, except for the new interfaces.

Work on that branch has lower priority than most "other things" that come
up.
