I think this is exactly what Ulf meant by the code presented on Github.
We also do some transforms in our database project, so we can do one
more new easily, but it has some limitations.

It's just a few minutes I was remsh-connected to a live system and did
some manual data updates of our data objects (based on pmods).
AFAIK, this wouldn't be possible with transforms, so transforms
are only partial solution, if we'll simply omit their other disadvantages.

I'd wait for what OTP team is going to publish within the upcoming week..
