The idea is that you use #write: when you have a block that should not
ever happen during a Seaside request - image snapshots are a good
example of this.

That said, I've stopped using it because it seems to be buggy - I was
getting blocked on #write: even when no processes were inside #read:,
which shouldn't happen.  So if you want to deem it a failed experiment
and get rid of it for now, I won't mind :)
