i think at a cetain point one needs to handle over control to tested and working code. there, trust begins
otherwise, i wouldn't see the point of XmlizeStore as well.
also, to leave the user using const_cast at points he maybe doesn't really understand, 'just to make this damn thing compile', is probably more error prone.. it's to hide all that 'hacking' away from user.
