My workaround was to copy-paste the object programmatically to another
id (editobj_%s, %s being the original id), submit the copy to editing
and copy it back when publishing takes place.

This aproach has some problems (mainly when people start editing and
"forget" to publish later) but most of the time it works pretty well.
