Comment (by mpvanwinkle77):

 As someone who use frequently uses WordPress for mid-to-large scale CMS
 projects, I am very interested in seeing this added to core. A straight
 forward and scalable way to manage relationships is not trivial. Resources
 are scarce, including mental resources. In many cases you can use
 taxonomies but it's a convoluted solution with lots of opportunity for
 error. I frequently use [http://www.podscms.org Pods CMS ] when I need
 scalable relationships. But there are challenges there in terms of plugin
 development, as has been mentioned. Again, I understand the resistance to
 adding anything to core that isn't necessary. But WordPress Core Devs have
 to decide whether they want WP to be a full CMS capable of corporate level
 deployment or whether it will stick to being a Blogging/Publishing
 Platform. There are merits to both sides of this argument, but if
 WordPress is going to work toward being a full CMS it needs to work on
 relationships. Otherwise it should stop giving lip service to the CMS
 contingent.
