Hi, I was wondering if there's some way to create some sort of a "virtual" model which is not based on an actual table?
Use case: I have a model (e.g. `Room`) which contains a `data` JSONB attribute/column which is supposed to store plugin-specific data. I would like plugin code to be able to create a "virtual" model which references `Room` 1-to-1 and injects a `plugin_data` backref into it. That means I would be able to do `room.plugin_data.user`, for instance, which would use `room.data['user_id']` to fetch a `User` object. Right now, our plugins do this by means of an additional table. E.g., in this case we would have `PluginRoom`, which would store `user_id` and have a 1-to-1 relationship with `Room`, with a backref. I was wondering if there's some way we can have a similar pattern based on unstructured JSONB data.
