Sooner or later I will abandon it. I have asked the question to
determine how soon to abandon it. But certainly I am not going to maintain
it forever.

It was added to SQLObject to prevent people writing
if MyTable.select():
and force them to use either
if list(MyTable.select()):
or
if MyTable.select().count():
That shows ZPT has a misdesign here. What should SQLObject return in
__nonzero__() in this case? SQLObject doesn't know in advance if there is
a row in the result set.
Please write to a ZPT mailing list pointing them to an example of an
iterable object that cannot be typecasted to boolean.
