Yes, but the idea is to get rid of this limitation for querying columns 
in the same table (which is somewhat artificial).  In fact, now that I 
think about this, you can actually implement queries on different 
unidimensional arrays (think of them as independent columns) by using 
the `tables.Expr` class.  More on this later.
