Hi David,

Congrat!  You've found a bug :)

Correct.

At (more or less) the eventh hour, the Extension class was altered to allow 
multiple Extension objects, each with the same Key (but presumably with 
different Value attributes).  This was done by adding a LocalID and 
repurposing Key (previously it had the same role as LocalID).

I guess the necessary change to Entity's Association End was mistakenly 
omitted.

I believe so, yes.

Cheers,

Paul.
