Relationship types missing

Hey!

I wanted to suggest some relationship types I think are missing.

Family
- Sibling
- Cousin

Belongs to or Within
- Prison/Prisoner

These are the ones I have at the moment. There might come up more as I play around with relationships.
 
Ideally what should happen is that relationship types should be fully configurable instead of only partially. I'm just not sure if that is ever possible with the system as it is today.

These look like derived relationships.
It would be nice to have extended rules for relationships, so RW would indicate siblings without needing to manually set up these relationships :-)

(I remember writing a Prolog program a long time ago that would work out these family relationships.)
 
Siblings and cousins can be represented now with "Other family" and a note that says "sibling" or "cousin".

That's not quite as ideal as a separate, specific relationship, but it works.

Prison/Prisoner is a variation of Residence/Resident (and could be represented with a Residence/Resident relationship that had a note of "Imprisoned here" or "Inmate here"). However, since it really is a variation on "Containment" type.. that's one you can edit in the "Manage Tags" section to add your own relationship names.
 
The suggested extended family options as well as extended employment options (employee, indentured servant, slave, serf) would be quite useful.
