I was thinking about how testing works for users and came to the
conclusion that it might be easiest to get the "final" database changes
in first as its hard to have multiple parallel developments in that
area and the plain schema changes have a low risk of breaking stuff.

So if you come up with a "final" schema change we could add that sooner
rather than later.
