Not me, but here's my take. It seems like a simple hierarchic taxonomy
(even with facets) wouldn't fit your purpose. Sounds like you need a
more complex structure. 

It's a great case study though. You should post it on the web somewhere.
Then people could try to solve the problem with different approaches
(topicmaps, RDF, faceted a la XFML, relational databases, ...).

Cheers,
Peter
