Okay, then override _objectAdding().  Just be sure to call the original
implementation in your overridden version.  _objectAdding() is always
called with the invariants set up.  Note, however, that if you use
DataSkins outside of Racks, _objectAdding() is called when an object is
moved or copied, as well as when added.
