Not really...
Natural joins require that the column names be equivalent on each table.
In my current database schema, the common practice is to use
<tablename><columnname> as the column name of the FK. (i.e. "CarType" to
reference the "Type" column of a "Cars" table)

But yea, what I'm looking for is a form of NATURAL JOIN just..more
natural :)

Does NATURAL JOIN help?
