Re: writing collection of refobjects through xmiwriter

If you split outermost objects in repository into several collections and write
each collection to a different file using write(collection) method, then you
will loose links linking objects across the collections.

We plan to add some support for writting in multiple files (not based on
write(collection) method). We send a proposal when it is ready.
