The goal of the DataBlob base class is encapsulating read/write access to permanent data storage *on demand*. Comparing it to files, it is more like a path name than a file handle. boost::shared_ptr are used a) because it automates deletion of the actual data streams and b) some implementations of DataBlob might have to share access to these instances. One possible implementation (included in this patch) is indeed a plain file. It writes into a temporary file and only renames it to the final path name on success, which emulates the behavior of the FileConfigNode. The actual implementation of this renaming was moved into a separate class, the SafeOstream. Another (to be added later) is a chunk of data inside a larger file. This is needed for embedding different .ini style files inside one large text file, as required for MBC #1208).
