Make the datasecurity and ptsecurity Tag Creation Settings tied to the AF Database for which they were created.

I think this may be a bug. But currently the datasecurity and ptsecurity tag attributes assigned in the AF Tag Creation Settings appear to be stored on the machine where they were created and not on the AF Database for which they were created.

AF table quota

Currently, a user can crash the AF server by linking to a SQL query, but if the query changes unexpectedly to returning many records (if a user changes from an INNER join to a FULL OUTER join for instance), the AF server can crash. If would be goo...

AF should react better to unhandled exceptions from a linked table provider
