Delta df does not contain an area info for objects that already exist in db.
New objects can be put into "quarantine" area. They are empty so they can be 
moved easily to another area after appropriated analysis. The analysis can 
be partially programed. For example, new index of an existent table can be 
stored where other indeces of the same table are resided in.
