No one has argued that the shortcomings (not bugs, really, just things 
left out) makes the current implementation of very limited utility.  As 
I mention this is exactly why we choose not to use it at OpenACS.

On the other hand at least we took the time to understand how it 
actually does work before criticizing it.

It's a pity, as I pointed out the reduction in joins alone would really 
be great.
