Yeah, looks like I'm going to have to do the from hackery.

So I tried the stupidly obvious:

my $rs = $schema->resultset('Getcourses')->search(undef,
{
    from => 'getcourses(\'STUDENT\')',
})->first;

print "Name ",$rs->name, "\n";

Which gives me this error:

DBD::Pg::st execute failed: ERROR:  missing FROM-clause entry for table "me"
DBIx::Class::ResultSet::first(): Error executing 'SELECT me.courseid, me.name, 
me.seattotal, me.seatleft, me.slot, me.priority, me.availid, me.begindate, 
me.enddate, me.couponname, me.coupontype, me.coupontotal, me.couponleft, 
me.price, me.tax, me.currency FROM getcourses('STUDENT')' (): ERROR:  missing 
FROM-clause entry for table "me"

On first inspection it looks like it is doing what I want 
"SELECT * FROM getcourses('STUDENT')"
but I don't understand the error message.  The documentation talks a lot about
custom joins, but that doesn't look like what I'm trying to do.  Any hints?
