Comment (by diddledan):

 I've been looking over this lately and it does a great job of allowing
 remote content to be used as if it were local. Having the overriding
 filter only operate when getting data and not on writing data looks to
 satisfy the security concerns of allowing arbitrary IDs to be sent to the
 database in my opinion.

 +1 from me :-)
