I agree I should be using 'datum' for the plural form although I dont think
that word have ever passed my lips. That aside, what is strange is this:

(rdb:1) "auth_data".pluralize
"auth_datas"
(rdb:1) "auth_data".singularize
"auth_datum"
(rdb:1) "data".pluralize
"datas"
(rdb:1) "data".singularize
"datum"

So it seems things are reversed. The above is run with no inflection set by
me.
