Posting here since issue tracking isn't the best place to discuss.
I can understand habtm is moving towards deprecating support for extra attributes in join_table, and to use :through for those cases instead.
To clarify, patch for #5216 wasn't looking to support populating extra attributes in join table. But rather, it was meant to make habtm resilient against existence of extra attributes messing up with the expected, normal operations of habtm - after ur classes are setup with habtm, they'll continue to run nicely even if schema has to change on join_table.
Cheers
