If you don't feel that containment boundaries are a sufficiently fundamental 
concept, then we have a strong disagreement. I stand by what I checked in.

And BTW with "modification descriptions" I couldn't write a simple adapter 
for this. I'd have to have a generic adapter for IObjectModifiedEvent, then 
iterate over all the descriptions and filter by hand. Yuck.
