It's fun that in the data dictionary, objects can be listed as "valid" even though their underlying components may have disappeared or db links stopped working properly.

The server never double checks, it assumes they ave valid until someone tries to use the object or the database is restarted.

So the information in the data dictionary is not necessarily trustworthy.
