I'm sure there's a better solution, probably some other "do expansion of object relationships" call that should be invoked instead, but I can't quite understand the C-fu magic that is going on with the new configuration code!

Hi Andreas,

You're probably very busy, but can you provide some pointers for where to look please? There's some black magic going on which I can't decode!

In the other thread, the hint:

was enough to get me on the right track. I think there's something similar here required for me to grok the expansion logic.
