+This is a temporary state that can be assigned to an object before it is
+saved. Once it is saved, it will be permanently deleted from the data store.
+This will not likely be visible in the UI, and is reserved for use in those
+rare situations where an organization must physically delete data from its
+data store. As such, purging will be rare and must be carried out with great
+care, especially since an RDBDMS data store, in particular, will cascade
+delete all the data for an object to include object it contains or defines.
+For example, purging a type will delete all objects based on that type. More
+commonly, deleting a document will delete all data associated with the
+document, including all of its previous versions.
