Unfortunately rhltables make this approach unworkable. However while trying to write the code I found a bug :-( I'll post a patch for the bug, and a patch to transparently make the current interface more reliable when the caller keeps the current object in the table. I think this is sufficient for all current use-cases. Thanks, NeilBrown
