I think we are getting in to splitting hairs here. The answer on where
to put it would have to reside in whether you will be
updating/inserting accounts from any other location and if it is a
requirement that everytime you update/insert an account that you also
update/insert a profile and a signon. There are probably a dozen other
reasons i could come up with that would influence where to put it. My
general rule on things like this is that I would push it up into the
Service layer regardless because insertAccount, insertProfile and
insertSignon are fine-grained calls that possible could be used
outside of this block. But, like i said above... that judgment may
change based on the "business rules". But, truly, i don't think there
is an easy "this way is right" approach.
