No ... don't take it to serious.

It just has some other problems with regards to relations. Ie. That you 
have to use a unique global object id to do relations efficiently. And 
then you still have to make a class that gets the actual relations. It 
can be a can of worms, and there is no really nice solution to it.

See the ExplicitObjectReference proposal at: 
http://www.zope.org//Wikis/DevSite/Proposals/ExplicitObjectReferences 
for the dirt.
