I suspect that is the gist of it.  I work with numerous systems that 
have audit trails that are subject to regulation, and it is pretty 
typical that the way to "correct" an audit trail entry is to add an 
additional audit trail entry (with the old entry still being there - 
perhaps with a pointer to the new entry).  There is no shame in 
admitting that you made a mistake - the kinds of people who audit these 
systems look at a lack of mistakes as evidence that something is being 
hidden.
