When creating a new template by copying an existing template, there was a message that the databaes queries were not replicated with the template for security reasons, and that only someone with a host account could add the database queries.
So there are no queries listed at all. The namespace wasn't "foundational" - I meant that to mean that it was a fundamental aspect of the form template, sorry. The namespace is actually FUNDERINFO and the following two things are true:
1) It does not exist in the newly created template in a list of database queries; the list is empty.
2) I cannot create a query with the same namespace FUNDERINFO because either the term I am trying to use is a) a reserved word or b) It is already being used as a namespace. Since it is not a reserved word, the second reason must be the one in play.
It would be nice to have composite key for uniqueness rather than enforce it on the name only, with this particular situation especially in mind.
