I think this would be the best solution if scidt is still
the way to go. Pascal worked on some parts of the database
structure, maybe he droped it for this reason?

This sounds a good idea. But I think that the maintanance
window is the wrong place as it requires the DB to be loaded
already. The dialogue that tells you to run the tool should
probably offer a "Make it so"-button ;) The other "natural"
place would probably be the newly created context menue of
the finder window.
