> Currently, for doing energy diffusions with Gremlin sacks, you do this:
> {code}
> gremlin> g.withSack(1.0).V(1).local(out('knows').barrier(normSack)).sack()
> ==>0.5
> ==>0.5
> {code}
> Why are we doing this? Because {{out('knows')}} is one-to-many and thus, after we split the traversers, we need to renormalize their sacks so you always have a constant total energy (i.e. 1.0).
> However, starts to look ugly if the traversal is complex. Perhaps we have {{OneToManyBarrierStrategy}} that can be activated which simply wraps all {{flatMaps}} into a {{local(....barrier(consumer))}}. If that strategy is activated, then the above diffusion would look like this:
> {code}
> gremlin> g.withSack(1.0).V(1).out('knows').sack()
> ==>0.5
> ==>0.5
> {code}
