It seems to me it's a design flaw. There are several properties that are a list of values like history and group-member-set. I was thinking of adding a type identifier field to the properties table and storing the individual values in a different table, one per row. That's the usual relational db solution to this problem. BTW, there's a property_type field in the properties table and the Java object also has this field, but it doesn't seem to be used. Is it used at all? If is not can we use it for this purpose? I volunteer to try to fix at least one of the database stores using this technique if anybody thinks it's worth it.
