Agree, it would be a better workaround for now. I will be able to do this at
this friday.
I considered the idea to forbid placement of child on the same page as parent,
but this implementation a) could significantly increase size of index, b)
doesn't solve Greg's point.
We definetly need new idea of locking protocol and I'll return to this problem
at autumn (sorry, I havn't time in summer to do this research).
