//TODO: 'unique' may be a useful modifier, but not at this stage of development

//The create handlers are supposed to handle inserting new data into a database
//You don't have to create all associated books at the same time as the authors - you can use update later to join them

//You can use the '[' and ']' symbols to create mutliple elements of data at once

//'create' also counts as a modifier, indicating that a specific value is new to the database, and returning an error if it exists already OR
//'match' is used when an existing value must already exist in the database, and returning an error if it does not OR
//if no modifiers are specified, 'set' is used as a fallback (query for compounds, create if not found)

/* possible create requests include:

create Author {
	name "Sydney Sheldon"
	create books [
		{
			title "The Naked Face"
			published 1970
		}
		{
			title "A Stranger in the Mirror"
			published 1976
		}
	]
}

create Author {
	name "Sydney Sheldon"
	create books {
		title "Bloodline"
