The find_by_sql method only works if all the columns from your arbitrary query are mapped/mappable to your model's DM properties, no? The DataMapper::Collection will be an array of your Model, as opposed to what I did above. I'm not saying I'm more correct, but if you have results that don't cleanly map to your Model's DM properties, it's an option.
