Because my disconnected Data.fs very well may not be canonical. If it
were, then a simple scp Data.fs server:/path would do the trick. Bonus
points for rsync which would probably result in the last n bytes being
appened, all without using any knowledge about ZODB transactions.
Merging changes is the tricky part.
I'm wondering if the easiest way to do it now wouldn't be Coda and maybe
logically separated mounted ZODB databases.
