Is it possible for EOF to support a reflexive relationship back to the same Entity with the same relationship property name through a flattened many-to-many?

Think of a User entity in the case of LinkedIn where users are "linked" to other users:
User <---->>Connection<<---->User

Connection is the flattened (EOGenericRecord) m:n table with only the foreign keys as its two primary keys. User.connections simply returns all the connected users.

I'm imagining that you'd link them up like this:
userA.addObjectToBothSidesOfRelationshipWithKey(userB, "connection");

Any one with experience/gotchas doing this? (No inheritance involved.)

Thanks,
Joe
