Thanks for the input,
I wouldnt say this is exactly a complicated example. Its basically where
you could infer the polymorphic class from STI type sort of thing. Im
pretty sure many other people run into it.
The bottom line is that there is no customizablility.
The problem is that the code has sql strings generated with
"#{variable}_type = X which makes it very hard to replace with a
function to control the outputted polymorphic sql condition.
I wonder if there is anybody else that has run into the same problems.
