I may have contributed to confusion by being to circumstantial, but
Erik has cleared up this meanwhile I suppose.

Alright, even this part of this thread has developed from what was
just an aside of mine, while the OP may have left thread and
Subversion for good & CVS since long. ;)
What I really tried to say is that developing a new print function
may take you a week and you would only need the printing
category of the whole application and probably the central UI to
reference your new function. Or for designing a new wheel you
don't need anything but the steering part of the whole car while
Sally can limit her checkout to the backseat design.
OTOH we can't say OK, today I add the descriptions of a thousand
screws to the joints category of our website and tomorrow I
checkout the kitchen category for adding in the next couple of days
all the new stuff manufacturers have cooked up for the fair.
It rather is I have to add a new screw and thereby notice I should
reference (link) to it in the description page for the kitchen
construction kit, and also that one for the mower repair kit, and - oh
my! I nearly forgot! - in the tools section we added this all-new
super self-turning screwdriver last week this damned screw is just
designed for. So I need to have all the stuff. If we'd do this based
on database I would have all stuff at my fingertips just the same.
For the example a database may indeed be the better solution
though locking records might become a problem, but it is just an
example, we don't sell mowers, kitchens, screws, and tools. ;)
