I don't think I wrote very clearly. I didn't mean "make it impossible  
to use the same nic-hdl for two different organisations' objects". I  
meant that if a person object is deleted then its nic-hdl could not  
be reassigned to a different person object at a later date. As long  
as you clean up as you go keeping your handle and maintainer  
shouldn't be an issue - if this feature was ever added.
