Ben, I've just read the Session.mapper docs and I'm not sure what yourconcerns are. Are you concerned with its use? or that putting it in thetutorial will confuse new users?
Well, in regards to how querying and autoflushing work with regards to making new objects, then doing queries. The way objects are tracked via Session.mapper isn't quite the same. Perhaps Mike B. can explain it better, all I know, is that I had so far not done anything in the combination that would've caused unexpected behavior.
But mainly, I'd like to document the same style that is shown in the SQLAlchemy docs, as I think it will make it easier for new users and existing users. I've had many occasions where I've gone to the SA docs, and had things not work quite like I thought due to trying to adapt the docs to the SessionMapper extension. I've also answered or tried to answer quite a few questions on the IRC channel due to the SA docs all going over the 'standard' way of doing it, so on the whole I think its good to let users be able to use the entirety of the SA docs, or use Elixir (or they can use Session.mapper when they understand what its doing).
Cheers, Ben
