Ah, cool, I'd call that 'break handling'. [It's been on my DBI to-do for years as "Add 'break handling' when field values change? Use two fbav's so 'previous record' is available. Define break fields and handlers. Call them via an alternate fetch_with_break method."]
'Loop' is a bit vague. How about... DBIx:: ::FetchLoop bdpOg Fetch with change detection and aggregates BITS Tim.
