Queries intended to only return masters and modifications (I'm calling
them modifications instead of exception because "exception" is already
so heavily overloaded) will need to specify that explicitly, or they'll
get occurrences, too.  But it shouldn't be hard to construct queries to
avoid occurrence items.

Sincerely,
