Don't modify data
"Tools changes, data not". In order to follow this "credo", MongoKit won't add any information into your data. If meta informations must be added (for instance the delete cascade features), this will be done into another mongokit's collection. So if you need to use another mongo tools or another ORM in another languages, your data won't be pollued by specific mongokit staff.
