Thanks Michael. To make a long story short, I'm appending a couple columns onto a query, running it, and then using those two extra columns for some client-side logic (involving calculations to be precise). At the end of that logic, I need to remove those two extra columns. I'd like to be able to do that and keep the RowProxy stuff.
There's a workaround though so it's not a big deal. I've looked through the code and it seems I'd be going too far outside of the core design to keep doing this.
