      # Normally a polymorphic belongs_to relationship allows us
      # to get the object we belong to by calling, in this case,
      # +item+.  However this returns nil if +item+ has been
      # destroyed, and we need to be able to retrieve destroyed
      # objects.
      #
      # In this situation we constantize the +item_type+ to get hold of
      # the class...except when the stored object's attributes
      # include a +type+ key.  If this is the case, the object
      # we belong to is using single table inheritance and the
      # +item_type+ will be the base class, not the actual subclass.
      # If +type+ is present but empty, the class is the base class.
