Interesting.  Some initial questions:

Could the ordinary bulk_load protocol be used
instead of using the sign of the number as a flag?
Maybe the client could send an extra byte indicating
that no load is required before sending the records.

Could this be implemented with a subclass of Persistent
instead of changing PersistentBase?

deepcopy seems like a potential hazard.  Maybe the classes
that implement _p_resolve() should also define another method
that saves a copy of the current state as needed for conflict
resolution.
