I'm just curious about a few things.

1) What is the difference between a cabin_type and a cabin_category.

2) Does each ship have an exclusive set of cabin_types that no other
ship can have?  The table definitions imply that this is so.

I'm just guessing here since I don't really understand the
relationships involved in a ship's cabins.  However, I would expect
that a cabin should be directly related to a ship.  Each cabin is
defined by a category according the set in the cabin_category table.
