I'm a beginner so I would be very interested to see a section,
included in this tutorial, about patterns/strategies for dealing
with transactions and objects updates, in a Seaside+Magma
application. For ex. how to perform an update to a user's address?
Open a transaction with *session begin* and  hold it until the user
submits the changes? or make a copy of the persistent object, hand
it to the editing component and merge the changes when the user
submits? or use Magritte? etc.

Best regards,
Dan Corneanu.
