Core Data Questions

    I'm currently trying to evaluate whether or not Core Data is a viable
storage system in our application.  Although I've been through the
tutorials, Refs, and searches, I still have questions:

1.  Our data hierarchy model does not seem to fit into the Core Data object
model.  (At least I haven't been able to make it fit so far).  Now what?
Redo the data model?

2.  Most of our objects include dictionaries with highly variable content.
Sometimes the object doesn't even know what has been stored in its
dictionary.  Is there anyway to implement this in core data?  I suppose a
one to many relationship could be used with an entity having a key/value
pair, which leads me to #3.

3.  If we implement a custom Attribute for NSValue (i.e., NSData), can we
store variable length data simply by archiving it? Or does it have to be
fixed length?
