Description Ed Sanders 2013-09-19 00:27:38 UTC
Because about half the code in the DM is solely there to keep this delicate data structure together, and now that we don't need ±1 cursoring it seems like a lot of effort for nothing.

The behaviour it provides (protecting metadata from deletion) can all be done in the transaction builders, and in fact we already do this for internal lists)

Going forward this will make multi user editing a lot easier to.

That said this is going to be a massive commit.
