Hello,

in the documentation there's no mention that I've found 
so far about extending existing models with a Page 
variant. The Author example creates a model that is also 
a Page. A different approach is to create an AuthorPage 
as:

class AuthorPage(Author, Page)

and doing it like this gives an error message on 
validate and any operation that calls validate:

"ordering" refers to "_order", a field that doesn't 
exist.

The apparent solution is to swap Page and Author, but 
are there other caveats? Is there a reason not to do it 
like this?
The reason I prefer to do it like this, is that I don't 
have to refactor my or 3rd party applications in order 
to make them useful within Mezzanine. The method using 
URL patterns doesn't appeal to me, cause I expect I 
still have to deal with views and resulting site 
inconsistencies.
