Which tests?

Are you running MySQL? There are some known test failures due to
problems in the way MySQL handles row-level integrity.

Agreed.

Hrm... my gut reaction is that the model description shouldn't know it
is separated across databases; this is a deployment issue, so it
wouldn't be good to hard code deployment into the model.

The queryset is (hopefully) about to undergo a bit of a refactor; so:

1) Don't base too much of your changes on massive reworkings of query.py
2) If you come across any refactorings that would be useful -
especially in relation to writing custom fields, etc - make sure you
make them known.
