If the application is running under a different user, he should not see
the changes I made under user DataCurator !?
Some other questions:

All users can the see the contents available under "Globals" ?

A user "A" see its own/same contents of UserGlobals - even in different
concurrent sessions  ? a e.g. user "B" can not see the content of
UserGlobals of user "A" ?

Its uncommon to use Smalltalk processes - as they are used in other
Smalltalk environments - instead one should user worker gems to do heavy
background job !?

If you have heavy calculation stuff one should consider exporting the
computational data for background work in a non-Gemstone programming
environment - to get most of the 2-cpu-limitation !?

Persistence is done by reachability - therefore the programmer must
create a global persistent object, from which all other (persistent)
application objects can be reached.This can be achieved via global
entries in the UserGlobals directory or Globals - or perhaps much better
in a class (instance) variables ?

Some more questions to come :-))) Thanks for answering ...
