Can some kind of checksum be used to demonstrate the non-target tables
haven't changed?  I haven't thought this out yet, but it seems that if we
can logically isolate the non-target tables, contrive some kind of check sum
on their values, we might have an easy indicator that nothing has changed in
them after the target table has been modified.

What do you think?
