That's probably the biggest issue with your proposal. Objects shouldn't
appear at different locations (yeah, we already do this with the
language objects in 9.1, but I'm not sure how we should deal with that).

50 triggers on a single table? wow, something is so wrong with your
setup. I don't quite get why you would end up with so much triggers.
Isn't that a big issue with performances?

But I get it that with such a setup, you need a better tree.
Unfortunately, your kind of setup is probably really specific, and isn't
a usual one.
