will this mapping support joins for cmp finders? at the moment it is only 
possible to specify the WHERE clause for the queryies but it would really 
be a big help to be able to also specify the tables included in the FROM 
part of the select. that way n-m relationships between entity beans could 
be dealt with quite nicely by joining over relationship tables in the 
finders.  should be a piece of cake for you to implement. your mapping 
solution is probably much more powerful than this but so far you have only 
mentioned capabilities for persisting complex objects and nothing about 
additional features for specifying finder methods, which I find very 
important too.

can't wait to see the next version.
