IMHO the best way to make the SNOMED pill sweeter is to take this to the
next level and build a system that allows mapping between a personal dictionary
of terms and codes, as no coding system will ever perfectly match the
"diagnostic expression" the clinician wants to use for this particular patient,
however the code is still there behind the scenes to activate the various 
decision-support
features elsewhere in this hypothetical new-generation EHR system and allow all 
the funky analytics.
