Since the vw is not merely co-existent to the rw, but rather a subset of it, the 
divine right of the creator of the vw would be subject to whatever natural or 
divine rights exist in the rw.  Doesn't this bring us right back to the OOC 
issues which inspired Raph's original post, since divine rights are IC, but 
Divine and Natural Rights are OOC? :-)
