Not unless you add an is_latest column or something to the table.

Check out the "find" method type:
$latest =
$o->find_messages(sort_by => 'message.pubdate DESC',
limit => 1)->[0];
I guess you'd still want to wrap that in a nice method name, but at
least you don't have to create a new relationship.
