List peoples relationship relative to the person in focus on events

When adding people like parents and godparents to a baptism event it annoyed me that in the People box of the event these people was displayed with their relationship to me.

Isn't it more correct and logical to list the relationship to the person in focus, - i.e the child that got baptized?

I know it will be problematic on events like marriage where two people are in focus, but even that could be solved if the closest relationship is displayed like brides mother instead of grooms stepmother.

Listing such relationships will tell a much better history than just a list of names related to the viewer.

Today I solve it by describing the relationships in the About This Event section - which by the way we should support  wikitext formatting, - but that should be another request.. The "add me" link should by the way be replace by a edit list link.
