+  # Wraps a guard around #save to make sure that recursive calls don't actually
+  # invoke save multiple times. Recursive calls to save can occur quite
+  # easily, and unintentionally. Consider the following case:

+  #   class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
+  #     has_and_belongs_to_many :people
+  #     after_create :grant_access_to_admins
+  #

+  #         admin.projects.push_with_attributes(self, "access_level" => 42)

+  #   end
+  #
+  #   class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
+  #     has_and_belongs_to_many :projects
+  #     ...

+  #
+  #   teddy = Person.find_by_name("teddy")
+  #   project = Project.new :name => "sumo wrestling"
+  #   project.people << teddy
+  #   project.save!
+  #
+  # The #push_with_attributes causes +self+ (the project) to be saved again,
+  # even though we're already in the midst of doing a save. This results in
+  # "teddy" _not_ being added to the project's people list, because the
+  # recursive call resets the new-record status and thus ignores any
+  # non-new records in the collection.
+  #
+  # Thus, the need for a recursive guard on save.
