 target_type  <-- maybe

-I'm not exactly sure how to throw the attribute-groups in here yet.  Maybe, something like (taking some ideas from datatree here):
-
-<code>
-horde_policy
-------------
-policy_id
-policy_name
-policy_parent  <-- no need for all parents, just immediate parent
-</code>
-
-This would abstract the "policy" a bit and make them nestable in a tree.  So, attribute-group == policy for all practical purposes.  Problem is, a policy as a whole has a target, and attribute-groups would not have a target.  hmmm...
+We can get the attribute group structure from the XML file.  No need to worry about storing it, just need to enforce that all attributes for a given app have unique names.  If there are two attributes with the same name, we should use the last one found in the XML file.
