Hmm, okay, the only problem I can think that still needs solving is this:
Say you're serializing to a relational database. All well and good.

...until another app comes along and modifies your relational table (pretty 
common usecase, othwerwise people wouldn't care as much about the storage layer...)

How does the serializer/deserializer find out something has changed and 
propogate this back up, invalidating any cached object, etc?

cheers,
