Hi,

We list all types of relationships that the TEI (the owner of the
dashboard) is linked to. The list also displays each relationship type.

The idea of implementing a warning is kind of redundant to me. The user has
kind of ignored what is already displayed and went to add another
relationship...

I like the idea of limiting the number of relationships one can have for a
given relationship type. However, the issue is that our model is not ready
for this - we need to rethink the entire relationship model.
