Agreed. This was discussed before as well. The problem is that currently
there is no easy way to communicate client graph changes to server side(let
me know if I am wrong,I guess we faced similar problem in RIO as well).
The performance penalty without such medium is that we have a key check in
the dictionary(did I miss something else). I am of the opinion that it is
really not costly.
