I am creating an appointment system where appointments can be made for
current users or for non-registered users.  I need a way to create a
appointment that references a client with polymorphic association.  I
use a PlaceholderUser object to create a placeholder user that just
has a name, and no other functionality.

I have:
Appointment
  appt_time
  client_id
  client_type

User
  name
  other attributes

PlaceholderUser
  name

I want to be able to use @appointment.client and @appointment.client=
to assign a client as either an User or a PlaceholderUser.  Is there a
way to do this without defining 'client' and 'client=' as class
methods?
