Named DB events will cause a small disruption, but the benefit is enough to justify it.

This will only effect me since I am using a longoutRecord instead of an eventRecord.  I can't put an eventRecord in an autosave monitor set because it posts the VAL field whenever the event occurs instead of just when the VAL field changes.  I could switch to using a stringoutRecord, and restrict 3.14 to strings which can be converted into integers.
