+For concepts with dynamic values:
+   * Every concept (and maybe its ancestors in the tree) will need providing with an XML file, albeit held within a database column.
+   * That file could be used on data loading to help format the relevant observation_fact. (I think this may be standard practice)
+   * Unfortunately, the presence of this metadata triggers a dialogue within the Workbench which is clearly aimed at lab test values. This is hard coded within the workbench.
