 * I have a large case law database I wish to import into wordpress.
 * I will need to create custom fields, which is fine, but will than have to deal
   with a situation where one case may have one citation, and the next might have
   fifteen. This occurs also for external links, for cases referred to and for statutory
   references.
 * CSV importer is v good, but allows in effect only one entry/line for each custom
   field – though it converts comma separated category names into separate categories.
 * I am starting this as a long project. Any advice will be welcome. I anticipate
   some coding.
