Well, technically it IS a more fundamental problem -- see the email I
just sent explaining it.  John is right that I wasn't thinking about
this use case, but even now thinking about it I still think it would be
very hard to implement given the current design limitations of the
QofQuery framework (again, see my previous email for more details).
