All I've seen up to now is that you continue to mix up simplification on the user side with data and
contentcontrol on the DB designer side. Do the users create all the tables and would have to create the views, or
isthat more the job of someone who's educated enough?
And about the multiple lookups and storage of new types, we have procedural languages and database triggers.
This is no personal offense, but I just don't see why we should adopt non-standard MySQLism for
functionalitythat is available through standard mechanisms with alot more flexibility and control.
