[ZODB-Dev] Confusion about persistent dictionaries / lists

[Jeff Sasmor]

Ah - so then the entire object is marked for storage if one
of its 'normal' attrs is changed.  I wonder if this is a behavior that
is confined to Zope or would occur in any situation using
ZODB.

It doesn't seem necessary to modify my existing code since
the bug has no effect (and changing it would mess up 
existing instances).

Thanks!
