I agree that would be a better conceptual solution. The reason I didn't
do it is because I tried a couple of times and couldn't get it all to
work, and I haven't had the time to really sit down and re-engineer it.
If you can get it to work I am happy to revert this and apply that; the
changes to the database schema aren't at all difficult to undo so any
brave souls running master won't be completely hosed.
