The big problem comes from having to deal with comma-separated values to 
reference records (here fe_groups) instead of real foreign keys.

Hopefully, more and more extensions will have a better scheme.

Unfortunately, this is unlikely to happen for TYPO3 Core itself as it 
would break virtually too many extensions or would probably mean have a 
non-negligible overhead to have some fallback for them (scheduler job?).

Cheers
