+Avoiding ORM and splitting into two apps seems to be like making water flow up
+hill. Going to just make this a generic flask-sqlalchemy thing for now.

+#### Open Questions
+
+How to create multiple cross-referenced entities at the same time? Eg, work and
+release, with release referencing work. work_id isn't allocated/indicated until
+merge-time. As a work-around, could have a temporary work_rev_id column which
+gets overridden during merge.
+
+Mechanism for skipping edit group stage. Propose always having edit rows
+generated, containing appropriate metadata, but certain bots can skip creation
+of edit group.
