Maybe I went about it wrong in my attempt to explain the general problem.  I 
don't care about the issue I'm having with forms at the moment.  In fact I 
posted a fix that works for me.

"What I think should happen is we should require data structures be defined.  
"

I think you have been on the right track for years.  Using data structures 
solves several of the issues I've run into over the years.  I started thinking 
about this about a month ago when I asked a question on how the framework 
worked with DataStructure() (I didn't get an answer).  

I believe if the data structure is required many of the issues that surround 
the bizobj may start to disappear.  Example:

self.addField("extract(year from age(born)) as studentage")
self.addField("esenroll.pkid::text", alias= 'pkidtext')
self.addField("escourse.name_1 as course_name")

All of the above are legal.  But each presents a problem when defining the 
python datatype.  But if the developer defined the type - not an issue.

Tell me why you started defining data structures!
