When writing ways/POIs to the db, Potlatch replaces anything <32 with  
an empty string.

I can add a similar bit of code for relations, but since Potlatch  
writes relations using Rails objects rather than raw SQL, I guess it  
might be better in the relations model - in particular:

http://trac.openstreetmap.org/browser/sites/rails_port/app/models/ 
relation.rb#L177

Any objections if I put it there? Steve?
