 Thanks for all the work on the keywords. At least now things are more
 consistent. I would have looked first for database, and would probably not
 have thought of looking for "attribute table" as a keyword, but that's me.
 What this does raise as a question is why do we have to limit ourselves to
 one keyword per module. Can't you just create this list with all the key
 words, with modules appearing under different keywords ? Thus you multiply
 the chance of people finding the module.

 P.S. Sorry if my comment about my students using the list sounded harsh.
 I'm aware that this is a new effort, but was a bit surprised that it was
 published so quickly on the web site. Then again, GRASS7 _is_ a
 development version.
