fine with me, didn't like the workaround code anyway :). There still is the transaction part. Do such prop changes subscribe to the ongoing transaction policy? E.g. tx.start(); | aNode.setResident(true); | tx.rollback(); | //what's the value of aNode.sResident here? | Generally speaking we might want to have metadata that does/doesn't subscribe(?); or which we want (want not) to replicate ?
