Y'know I really miss designing relational schemas. As much as I hate SQL the language I love the relational model that it is a (butchered and ugly and compromised) implementation of. But working where I do on the systems I do now this is something I never have to deal with anymore.

There's something very therapeutic about organizing data using a system of rules, and the relational data model is a powerful one.

Completely agree with you. I have always hoped that some of the GUI modelers would allow you to add notes/explanations on tables & relations, explaining the motivation behind design decisions. Example, "M2M relation here allows us to 'tag' objects with multiple attributes".
