It's certainly possible to implement the SqlProvider using the new
architecture without changing the data store. The new architecture
significantly simplifies SqlProvider, in fact. It's just that the data store
is ugly-ass, and I'm having a hard time not fixing it due to my compulsive
nature. J

Is the code factored such that this doesnt matter? I.e. can this be ignored
and fixed later?

As I'm starting the work to bring SqlProvider forward to the 2.0
architecture, I'm confronted with the usual question I have when perusing
the FlexWiki code: if I see something obviously broken, should I change it
when the price is loss of backwards compatibility?
In this case, it's the database design. It's.a bit horrible. Specifically,
things like the author and the modification date are all encoded in the
"name" column. This ranks right up there with using comma-delimited fields
within the database. So I could fix it by making a proper table structure,
but it means that people are going to have to update their databases, and
I'm going to have to write a tool that does the update.
I'm inclined to just leave it the way it is. It makes my skin crawl, but I
think maybe I should just learn to live with it.
Thoughts?
