There is no semantic difference between "node" and "object", but "item"
is a different thing. Nodes live in the repository, and they consist of
several node versions; but you get items in the working copy. I think.
In any case, we have to make that distinction.

(We also have to get our theoretical model documented more concisely --
yes, yes, working on that :-)
