 The datastore seems to loose the 'source' metadata property for ds objects
 (and possibly other metadata).

 See the example code, which adds an HTML file to the DS with having the
 'source' metadata property set to true.

 With the current jhbuild, when you resume such an entry from the journal,
 Write will correctly open it showing the contents of the file (ie. not
 with any markup, just raw data).

 This will keep working, unless the DS is restarted. Then the 'source'
 metadata property of the journal object seems to be vanished.

 This makes http://dev.laptop.org/search?q=4022 rather useless.
