That would be great :)

Up to now we have used SQL transactions inside the Zope TM. This means
that, for each request/response, you've just one transaction, which is
either commited or aborted.

The Modeling Framework, on the other hand, would perform several
transactions on RDBMS,

This could be a problem since I could see, inside a transaction,
possibily different values for the same row. Of course I could decide to
manage directly these issues, but I would prefer to have them handled by
the Modeling Framework.

Let's say I've two classes, Customer and Order. The association is one
to many from Customer to Order.

Now let's say I'm retrieve a Customer C, using an ec.fetch(),  which
causes an RDBMS transaction. After this, another thread commits
something, modifying both the Customer and its orders. I then retrieve
the Orders, which is another RDBMS transaction. Data on the order are up
to date, but not on the Customer.

Actually, I would not having to deal with RDBMS transactions at all.
Instead, I would prefer to see a single BEGIN/COMMIT, or BEGIN/ABORT for
each of my Zope Transaction.
