    It is not.  I have to give this thought.  I don't know if this is
possible or not.  I'll mull it over over breakfast.

    It allows the Owner to view it, but not search for it.  Actually, I
haven't yet put in the security to disallow non-owners to view it yet,
they just don't find it on searches.

    Also, I remembered as I was trying to sleep last night that I don't
have a self.reindex_object() anywhere in the reviewing code, so when you
change it's review_state the catalog isn't informed.  Bug.

Mike.
