Hello all:

New Proposal can be found at: 
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Proposals/HashingSupport

I have finished creating a new Fishbowl Proposal for ZODB extension. 
The proposal is intended to allow Persistent objects to be usable as 
keys in dictionaries the same way an ordinary python class instance can 
be - that is hashed by identity.

Please review and provide feedback on how this is accomplished for 
Persistent object by providing a __hash__ implementation and extended 
commit code to handle identity from creation through multiple 
instantiations via DB connections.

I've actually created some working code to demonstrate the idea and 
provide a placeholder for implementation discussion.

Thanks,
John Heintz
