Could you send more detail on the design specs and pit falls?

So far, I've seen everything folks posted before, and there are elements
in each project of what I want, but I'm trying to think my way through a
fairly general solution that will work for a lot of groups.

I'm thinking something that is completely web manageable.  Ideally, I'd
also like to work in some sort of validation system that could pick up
obvious errors in the key value sections (though that is an interesting
problem there.)
