Comment:

 I think it's an excellent patch, and useful if you want to implement a
 tree branch totals query for django-mptt. It's backward compatible so I
 can't see any problem incorporating it. The only thing I could also
 suggest is having the syntax:
 {{{
 table = ['newtable as newalias']
 }}}

 This will allow additional arguments to be added, giving some future-
 proofing, with the added bonus you can simply cut and paste from your
 tried and tested SQL statement.

 Phillip.
