Thanks for reminding me of the DELETE use case Dan. No question that is the
most important one, even more than PERSIST.

I pretend that MERGE doesn't exist because I personally I detest it. REFRESH
makes sense, though few new comers would run into it. Perhaps we can go with

PERSIST, DELETE, REFRESH
