Ewww, sub-selects.  Not a very efficient use of the DB, is it?  I was under
the impression that it's just as fast (with MySQL at least) to just do the
sub-select yourself in the code instead of relying on the database to do it.

It depends on who is going to access the database.  Depending on the
usage model, I might even be inclined to use sqlite for a database of
this size.  It is faster than MySQL as long as it doesn't need to be
accessed by very many users simultaneously, is fully ACID compliant,
and offers some useful features that MySQL doesn't currently support
(at least in its stable releases), such as subselects.
