Ah, good point :-)))

Oh, ok, that's what I thought I would do anyway, so no big loss, just a
bit more painful to edit XML than a wiki page.

Purely personal motivations, because it took me ages to actually find
the database stuff - I ended up having to grep it because simple
browsing of the directory structure and looking in shared was not
exactly intuitive...and it is after all a module like the others in its
own right. Now, that I know where it is, I can live with it, but as a
barrier for first time contributors, the logical place to look would be
in its own folder alongside the other modules.
