OK I see.  So this couldn't be saved as a standard datavalue with a
period id.  I guess this problem is more about notions of time period
than about representation of the data - which could be represented as
datavalue='1' + categoryoptioncombo=?.

Anyway .. just thinking out loud about representing survey data on
forms (particularly categorical data) in general.  I suppose this kind
of data could conceivably appear in routine data as well.
