Title: RE: Solanum seaforthianum
Is that Solanum seaforthianum related to the accursed black nightshade that I cannot get rid of in the raspberry patch? Crush a leaf and see if it smells awful.

Yes Barb, they are related.  Our weedy nightshade vine is Solanum dulcamera. 
S. seaforthianum, however, is tropical with much larger flowers.  I believe it is considered a weedy pest in Australia.
