I'm planning on getting rid of redirect attributes to handle the Who,
About and Date attributes in the Summary Table. Instead I plan to add an
explicit Who, About and Date attribute. By noticing when attributes that
affect the value of Who, About or Date change (using onValueChanged),
I'll update Who, About and Date as necessary.
This is simple to implement and eliminates the current problem where
Who, About and Date sometimes doesn't display the correct value. It also
doesn't require a special "computed attribute" that isn't stored in the
repository, so you can always search for Who, About and Date like any
other attribute. Finally, it allows Andi to get rid of redirect, which
simplifies the repository design.
