It just occured to me: how do I make sure (e.g. force within a database) with 
the above structure, that a message can have *only  one* sender?
but, allow for multiple recepients?

If I'm not too late, unique partial index:

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX unique_message_sender (message_id, person_id) WHERE 
relationship_type = sender;
