correct me if I'm wrong: 

you dont let the application write to the actual storage table, but 
instead to a view, which a modified write to the actual storage, where
also the reads get their data from.

okay, that's really an idea worth to think about :)

insert should work the same way. but how to implement delete ? 
(the application should only see one table, so in our case the view).
if we user "DO INSTEAD", we wont get anything to delete (AFAIK), so 
we cannot intercept here. the only chance seems to leave out "INSTEAD"
and live with duplicate data.


Did I miss anyting ?
