Precisely why I started looking at FreqSpec when I was intending to get the 
QSF maps finished! Having something like this will make datebooks easier.

I just don't think it needs to be in the library - it can just as easily be in 
the application along with all the other objects. That would certainly make 
more sense.

To me, QOF - as a library - shouldn't pre-define objects that are not 
fundamental to it's purpose. It defines books, collections and sessions but 
you cannot have QOF without those.

I'll remove FreqSpec from QOF next commit.
