Should a retrieval attempt be made for the referenced document
rather than simply ignoring the refrence? It seems this would
reduce the likelyhood of undetected collisions at the edges of
the network where the node containing the reference might be
the only node that can access the document. The code appears
to do this already, so would it be better to cause the insert to fail
only if the data request succeeds?

I just volunteered yesterday, so If I have no clue what I'm
talking about, I appoligize in advance.
