In general..
a) Considering that I was coding up the same thing with triggers and such,
things could only get better.

b) Check out MSSQL 7's capabilities and weep.

c) It would be a start. One its in the tree, it gets used more, gets
improved..

It would be a while yet before 7.2 starts, plenty of time then to develop
it further.
