Hmm.. sounds like something other programs have been doing for a long time already. Take FileMaker Pro, for example...

I wonder if the patent is actually valid?

if it is issued it is valid. Does someone who cares have prior art that would invalidate the patent and does someone who cares and has enough money to invalidate it know about that prior art. That's the big question. If issued, it is valid.
