I forgot about that. I didn't take that approach for  number of reasons, mostly 
due to when the system was mostly written and the OSes I had to target, but it 
will work except for issues that are the continuing limitations of Core Data, 
in particular ACID compliance of any kind. In my case I am working with a 
multi-user back-end and a complex schema so I need predictable locking and 
transactional semantics (especially nested transactions).
