    ## Internal: Calling to the remote entity.

    ## All calls are synchronous. Asynchronous operations would
    ## created problems with circular ties. Because the operation may
    ## came back so much later that the origin is already in a
    ## completely new state. This is avoied in synchronous mode as the
    ## origin waits for the change to be acknowledged, and the
    ## operation came back in this time. The change made by it is no
    ## problem. The trace is still running, thus any write does _not_
    ## re-invoke our trace. The only possible problem is an unset for
    ## an element already gone. This was solved by using -nocomplain
    ## when propagating this type of change.
