Ok, I've just spoken with my colleague that has been involved in the IPA
roll out, and he said he thought that override_space wasn't compatible with
ID overrides?

Either way, since we have a working system we are reticent to make too many
changes - soon we will have a test system in place and I will be able to
check it then?

Cheers
