Subject: [Gnumed-devel] Vaccines within branded drugs needs code (and maybe schema) adjustment?

In the publicly-available Canadian drug directory, vaccines are only 
(potentially) identifiable by their ATC; they share (in common with various 
non-vaccine medications) various preparation types of

        suspension
        solution
        liquid

It would be a shame for GNUmed to be unable to properly handle them except 
after their "physical" form (above) would be overwritten with their clinical 
use ("vaccine").

Can GNUmed let the preparation keep its "physical" meaning as above, and 
instead understand as vaccines (and filter into the vaccination widget) those 
Branded drugs which either

- have an ATC beginning J07
or
- have a boolean value in a to-be-added column is_vaccine

??
