Out of curiousity, what do you suggest? Normalizing the relations and then
ignoring the functional dependencies by adding a separate numeric id field?
I can see how such works better with something like Cayenne, but it does
seem to run counter-intuitive to the model that was just designed
(especially with "static" information, such as an SSN).
