My current plan is to split what’s in resist!.el into two packages
- kv.el, which provides persistent key value store, and should
  support multiple backends. My log store would be one,
  what’s in persist.el already would be one, and potentially
  SQLite3/gdbm/recutils... ones in the future.
- My persistent variable stuff is of different flavor from those
  already in persist.el, mine being more transparent.
  I hope I can let my stuff join persist-* namespace,
  and replace what’s already in persist.el with wrappers
  for backward compatibility.
  But I would need to hear back from author of persist.el
  first.

Best,
Qiantan
