Sure, but you can encapsulate all that stuff too.  When I've done stuff
like this in the past (and on second thought I have done it just as
aslak suggested, I just didn't think of it :) we've created some seed
data builders.  Then it becomes a simple matter of SeedData.build_data
to kick off the whole deal.
