Yupp, I know. Unfortunately the current code base of ZODB is IMHO in a
bad shape to get anybody started. :(

I had an intern work on it and had a hard time explaining things because
e.g. the interfaces are in a bad shape and I have to keep looking what
the things are doing myself all the time.

Additionally, my project requirements may need me to implement this
earlier.
