When running queries that do joins, I often find the format of the result 
somewhat cumbersome, with its nested structures representing the different 
tables in the join.  If I were writing the query in raw SQL, I would 
probably use "AS" clauses to select just the columns that I want, with 
simple "top-level" names.  Something like

Select Table1.foo as stuff, Table2.bar as blah from Table1, Table2 ...

Is there a way to do this with Web2py?  It would seem natural to specify 
this inside the select call, something like

db(db.Table1.foo=db.Table2.foo).select(db.Table1.foo.alias('foo'), 
db.Table2.bar.alias('blah'))
