Persistent data

A frequently reoccuring use case in my forms is persistent data.

I load an instance from somewhere, and periodically after making changes I 
save it back to where it came from.

How about:

 <instance resource="data.xml" persistence="incremental"/>

(other naming is possible)

which states that the instance should be automatically saved back at 
intervals (like how incremental works), and always at the end.

Needs more thought, but it would make a useful addition.
