The naming standard in Python says that any attribute or method that
begins with '_' means that it is an internal implementation, and
should not be accessed outside of the class. While you've changed the
recordset, you've bypassed several internal details that keep track of
the state of the various records.
So let me understand what you need to do, and perhaps we could add a
simple way to do it to the framework. You want to pass a dataset to a
bizobj, and have it add that dataset to its current dataset? Seems
simple enough, but a couple of questions: what should happen if the
columns are not the same? What about if a PK is duplicated? Should the
validation fire at the time they are added, or when they are saved?
What about field-level validation? Can we assume that these records
are all new, i.e., all INSERTs into the database?
