Forum OpenACS Improvement Proposals (TIPs): Re: TIP #86 (proposed): Allow a null table name associated with an object type.

Actually I think we should leave package_name not null, and allow for table_name and id_column to both be null or both be not null.

acs_object_type.new() sets the package_name to the object type if "null" is passed in and I don't think we should touch the semantics here ... letting it be null wouldn't break code but would require work on package_instantiate_object and similiar API code and since it's already being forced to a package name ... let's keep that.

Just my thinking ...
