Yes, it makes sense.  I hadn't realised that the GEDCOM standard tried
to define these things, until you, and Gerald (thanks, BTW Gerald;  I
think I forgot to reply to your email) said.   As I said, I can live
with things the way they are, since the 2.1/2 series allows me to
define my own events/attributes.  I'll definitely be shifting No. of
Marriages, since that's something you can't (really) assign a date to.
