New description:

 Some of the code is pretty messy and could benefit from some housecleaning
 and re-conception:

  * Connection spec & controller pointers in pobjects
  * The whole metaclass protocol, particularly the way indexing is managed
  * pobject serialization / deserialization: see April '07 devel list
 discussion with Pierre
  * #55
  * The asdf / build system is really ugly, at least reorg if not re-
 architect
  * Transaction macros, stack and interface w/ backend - factor our common
 parts
  * The test system and interface is awkward, reorg and simplify interface
