How did you work around the Query problem?  Or have you not done so,
yet?

This depends on a lot of things.  I haven't had much chance to work on
it since my last commit.  I know that I need to add a good deal of UI
niceties (such as the ability to delete Entries).  I also am
re-thinking some of my abstractions.  I know that how I envisioned
"purchase orders" probably don't really work right, either.

However, at this point what I could really use is feedback from people
who are trying to use this functionality.

Oh, probably..  Assuming I can get some time to work on some other
major UI features for the business stuff.
