Joining the tables required for this sort of query does require some dependance on things like property IDs which do seem like something that could easily change between versions and yes there is some complexity introduced by the vary by scenario/time options.

You can provide a nice interface that doesn't require access to the dimensions/members and is not limited by 5 text fields amount of fields either.
