(I agree). Could you clarify whether you're planning to keep the
mergeinfo information _visible_ via properties, even if it's not stored
as such in the backend?

i.e. will the only difference between the existing system and what
you're proposing be where the data is stored, or are you planning on
taking the whole mergeinfo information completely out-of-band as well?

Malcolm
