[mnet-devel] thread safety of localblockstore

We once had an extensive discussion (on IRC) about threadsafety.  Actually, 
I think it got cutnpasted to the mailing list.  It really ought to be found 
and put into some doc such as the Mnet coding standards doc [1].

Anyway, the (over-)simplified solution is "Single-thread them all, and let 
Twisted, or Zooko, or someone, sort it out."
