Don't be misled here. Elixir only helps when you create your database
from scratch, and it only helps by generating some database elements
for you: namely, columns for ManyToOne relationships and intermediary
tables for ManyToMany relationships. If you don't need/want that, you
should rather use SQLAlchemey's builtin "declarative" extension.
