1) An unlimited number of latin names. Each latin name can optionally be annotated with several things, including whether it is accepted, and the source that can verify its validity (itis, etc). The concept of "secondary" or "alternative" names go away. Instead, each plant has all its names listed one after the other. "Accepted" name(s) shows up first in the list.


Dave, Re: latin names only:
Will typical "moderation" determine the first name in the list?
Will the way names are displayed at the top of the page change? In a search list?
