I do not think I mentioned at all about updating existing rows, but
thought that it was inevitable that this would be wanted at some
point.  As a first attempt at implementing this, nonetheless, updating
can be missed out, which was probably why I did not mention it.
Actually missing out updating entirely and just allowing
deleting/inserting is very appealing.

As to the naming data->datastore makes sense if you found data unclear.

Thanks
