Comment:
I absolutely agree re garbage in garbage out: if there's a problem with
the data, the admin tool should '''not''' be expected to work properly.
However, if there's an obvious data problem, the admin tool shouldn't say
"there's ten records" but only display nine. It just doesn't make any
sense: clearly something is very wrong and we shouldn't pretend it's OK.
No need to handle it gracefully: just make it throw a dirty great
exception, rather than pretending everything is OK. Either data is OK, or
it's not. At the moment the admin tool handles shades of grey, which is
unnecessary and confusing. No?
