Simon, I remember being confused about it as well (at some point I understood it, but I'm not sure I do any longer). Check out the discussions in 1270<http://www.assembla.com/spaces/tracks-tickets/tickets/1270> and 1273 <http://www.assembla.com/spaces/tracks-tickets/tickets/1273> . Hope this helps.
