+The XCom backend for the tasks of a language SDK runtime.
+
+A language SDK runtime sends its XCom requests to the supervisor, which runs 
the configured XCom backend
+on them before it forwards them to the API server. The backend runs in a 
helper process, started per task
+the way the supervisor starts a Python task process, so the long-lived 
supervisor process keeps none of
+the backend's state, such as a cached filesystem that a task process forked 
from it later could not use.
+
+The supervisor services the helper process from the selector of the task it 
serves, so a backend call
+never blocks that task's request loop, which goes on heartbeating and 
enforcing ``execution_timeout``.

Review Comment:
   Falling back to storing the value in the DB defeats the purpose of the 
backend. People configure object storage precisely to keep payloads out of the 
metadata DB, and some for compliance. A Python task would fail here, so this 
should fail the push too. Raising is probably better.
   
   Same for the block in `_load_row`.
