Moving a large parent object in the Object Editor fails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Parent a lot of objects
2. Move the parent to a different location in the tree
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Not all the children move. Sometimes objects in the group either disappear or 
end up at the starting location.

Jonathan wrote in an email:

"I think the problem with parenting multiple objects has to do with Darkstar 
transactions: the reparenting needs to be broken up into a number of separate 
transactions like we do with other things."

This problem is more wide-spread. There are problems with parenting involving 
large numbers of objects in many different circumstances. For example, there 
are problems with large hierarchies, trying to unparent hierarchies, exporting 
large parents, etc.

   - have some sample server-side code for breaking things up
   - not a lot of code, but tricky
   - existing command to re-parent
   - just need to change in one place
