This is, in fact, a good idea, and one I would like to see implemented. Be aware, however, that I am hoping to rewrite .12's entire database layer, and this idea probably won't be incorporated into the first .11 release. (We may accept it for later releases.) -- Kevin L. Mitchell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
