A also don't want the upgrade mess again. However, I've added db
upgrade functions like you describe to the SqlPodcasts because there
was no upgrade framework in place. The DatabaseUpdater seems to be
limited to support SqlCollection only, yet we store a lot more then
the basic meta types in the database. So we need a more generic
database-updater. I have investigated the problem, but realized I need
more knowledge and experience for something like that. I must say I
really like the system quassel uses, but that is radically different.
