I think that may have been fixed, but since there's practically zero documentation on how to use blobs, use them wisely, use them well, and use them in fairly plain Zope 3-ish applications, I lost confidence.

I think I just found a way to fix this particular issue on the 
ZODB-level for good. I re-opened 
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/zodb/+bug/240381 and assigned it to 
myself. I'll see if I can do something over the weekend.
