+Each store has slightly different semantics wrt draft v published. XML doesn't officially recognize draft

+Split mongo has a physical for every unit in every state.
+
+Given that, here's a table of semantics and behaviors where - means no record and letters indicate values.
+For xml, (-, x) means the item is published and can be edited. For split, it means the item's
+been deleted from draft and will be deleted from published the next time it gets published. old mongo
+can't represent that virtual state (2nd row in table)
