[wp-hackers] geocomments?

[David Chait]

You do a query on foo ID #234.  Is that comment #234, post #234, user 
#234...?  Three tables as there are three source tables, all with 
overlapping keys...

At least, imho. ;)

Just out of curiousity: why create an entirely new table?

Both usermeta and postmeta right now have a schema of meta_id, foo_id,
meta_key, meta_value. Couldn't we just add a meta_type column and have
a single-bullet solution that covers all future instances of metas?
