well here is the funny thing, is that I was sure back in November
that someone would soon mention this, and I'd have to look into some
more elaborate way to call __new__ instead of __init__ etc., then
some people might want it configurable, but here we are 6 months
later and you are the first to mention it.
so at the moment theres no terrific way to do what you want, other
than adding a flag to your __init__ method that says, "do the init"
stuff, since SA calls the __init__ with no arguments.
its probably worthwhile for me to look into using __new__ for 0.2
and to create objects from the DB more the way "pickle" does it.
ill see how that goes.

Is the __init__() method of a class instance called every time an
object is loaded from the DB?
If so, what should I do with code that should only execute when an
object is first created, but not when it is reloaded from the DB?
Thanks,
Tim
