We have a feature called "entity_name" that also does this without the subclassing, but I'm trying to determine a use case for entity_name that isn't better accomplished by just using subclasses. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
