awakeFromInsert rules: ok to fetch and create other managed objects?

Hi all,

I've been reading the archives for hours, trying to figure out the
'rules' for what can and cannot be done in awakeFromInsert.

1) Is it ok to execute a fetch from awakeFromInsert?  One might want to
do this to set a default property value that depends on other objects'
state.  It seems the answer is no.

2) Is it ok to create other managed objects in awakeFromInsert?  One
might want to do this to set initial relationships.  It seems the answer
is yes.

I'm hoping someone can confirm/deny these.

Thanks,

--
