I have no issue with including the aggregates into Cayenne if you'd like.
 The entire project is open sourced under ASF 2.0.

I personally rarely use SQLTemplate.  The large project I'm working on has
a few EJBQLQuery uses that do behind-the-scenes updates, but I'll probably
eventually nuke those, too (they are causing issues).  I'd only use an
SQLTemplate if I needed to do something for which Cayenne was really
ill-suited (like a mass-update or mass-delete).
