Perhaps we should punt it for now.  The code that is currently in CVS
works fine in one-to-one mode and forms the basis for future migration
for one-to-many once we can work out the issues.  I personally would
like to see talk on a better UI in Nautilus for representing one to many
user interactions.  Time is an issue and while one to many is a nice
feature I think we can live without for the short term.
