Actually, I would have used it for other things as well, a long
time ago, if I had only known that it existed! :) Thanks Jeremy.
(I'm still waiting for O'Reilly to publish ZODB in a Nutshell.)

So, the key fields in storage._index are OIDs, and the values are...?

Does other storages have this attribute as well?

Now there is one major thing that I've never managed to figure
out. How do I get from OID to object reference or vice versa?
