We're planning on removing the &persistent attribute before long too.  It's not terribly safe to use if you want to keep data safe externally to the Bro process.  Actually, we're hopefully going to be removing &synchronized too.  Neither of those attributes give you the flexibility to define how to make things behave.

If/when we remove them we'll be sure that equivalent and better functionality will be made available, I just wanted to make sure you're aware that your script will need to be updated in the future.
