Ack! :( I'm so sorry. Frando told me there was an issue for this
already, but I searched with both d.o's issue search and google, and
couldn't find it. :( I assumed maybe someone was going to post an
issue and then forgot about it. Looks like my keyword skills could
use some work. :(

That's great! I'll go ahead and represent foreign key info this way
then, and skip all the various complications you outline in the rest
of your post. Thanks so much!
