Hi Benjamin, can you tell me how it breaks Magma?  WriteBarrier should work
just fine with Magma as long as you don't change class definitions while
connected to a repository.  Regrettably, objects behind a WriteBarrier cannot
handle a class-schema upgrade under certain conditions, but this has nothing to
do with Magma..

If you have found an issue with Magma, I would be happy to fix it.
