Thansk Luke. I'm not familiar with observers but will research them.
Not yet knowing exactly what they are, I liked the fact that the
after_save handler guarantees that all the after_save processing will
be completed in the same thread as the save itself, thus avoiding the
potential for any race conditions in a multi-threaded environment.

As for your second suggestion - if I understand it correctly, that is
in fact what I am doing. The emission's after save handler calls
emitter.update_emitter_emissions, which then runs through the entire
list of emissions, making changes as necessary. But that doesn't
eliminate the problem... Or did I misunderstand your suggestion here?
