When doing this, is there any way to join it so I can select the entire
room object?  For instance, I would like to be able to do something like:

rooms = session.query(...).all()
for room in rooms:
    print room.id, room.name, room.next_event.id, room.next_event.title,
room.next_event.start, room.next_event.end

I guess what I'm asking, is there a way to create a custom relationship
between a "Room" and it's next "Event" using a lateral join like this?
