Would anyone have a problem with adding a column Description to
table Bioentry?
It's a qualifier right now, which means joining 3 tables just for
getting the description (well, there's some caching, so it boils
down to an additional query, but still). IMHO almost every bioentry
is going to have some sort of descriptive text; I don't see what's
the real downside of making this an explicit column. And I'd like to
keep the adaptor code as simples as possible ...
Any objections to me making this change?
