it's like a marching brooms sort of thing.
1st the lid won't come off the jar, the hammer used to break the jar open has glass permanently stuck to it. the applicator is glued to the application. the list goes on.

standard wood glue creates a bond stronger than the wood itself.

This post immediately came to mind:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Granny Glues Eyes Shut
January 2005 - SUNSHINE Coast great-grandmother Terry Horder got the fright of her life when she accidentally stuck her eyes shut with super-strength glue.
The 78-year-old Wurtulla resident was defrosting the fridge when her eyes started watering and she reached for a bottle of allergy eye drops.
But instead of grabbing the medicated drops she got Loctite 401 instant glue. The powerful adhesive was being kept in the fridge to avoid heat damage.
"That second my eyes were glued shut and I realised the glue was next to the drops in the fridge," Mrs Horder said.
Her husband of 57 years, Joe Horder, said his normally outspoken wife was suddenly very quiet. "Normally you can't shut her up but she went very silent and I just heard this little voice say 'Dad, I think I've glued my eyes shut'," Mr Horder said.
Mr Horder called Triple-0 and paramedics soon arrived to take her to Caloundra Hospital's emergency ward.
Nurses then used vegetable oil to try to remove the glue, which had fused Mrs Horder's eyelashes together and seeped under the lids.
"There was a pool of glue against the eyeball itself but lucky it couldn't dry because of the water on the eye," Mrs Horder said.
"They soaked my eyes for around five minutes and then tried to prise the lashes apart, which wasn't pleasant. But about 10 minutes later I was good as new." ---------------------------------------------------------------------

I heard about that on NPR yesterday; they claimed that the glue's binding properties were easily reversed using biological materials. I don't see that mentioned in the article though...

If its a polysaccharide/protein complex then an enzyme effecting hydrolysis would do the trick. Spit would ultimately dissolve it.

Well then, it's definitely better than superglue.
I hate that shit. Every other time I use the stuff, at least two of my fingers are instantly glued to each other. With the organic glue, I could just spit on my hand to reverse that sort of mistake 
Damn you to hell, cyanoacrylate!
