the Session etc. are regular python objects so you can patch on any arbitrary 
attributes.   The ScopedSession is not a factor here, as the Query is dealing 
with an individual Session in all cases.  ScopedSession is just a fancy 
container of Sessions.   The internals of the ORM know nothing about it.
