Or maybe we need d-snap (true mathematical dataset) and d-box (dataset
as a programming data structure, aka graph store).  :-)

(I'm not sure we get users to really accept that datasets are immutable,
so I'm not sure the migration to "graph store" for the mutable ones will
work.  I say +1 above because I'm sure we wont succeed with this
migration if we're inconsistent in our use of the terms.)
