I've got a table of employees and a table of departments and a related
table that joins the two.

So when I do

    for dept in employee.departments:

the SQLObject machinery runs a separate query for each department row.
Sometimes, this is fine, but sometimes, I want to do a query where I
grab every department all at once.

I have been manually adding classmethods when I need the "all-at-once"
join to happen, so then I do:

    for dept in employee.get_all_departments_at_once():

Is there a better way to do what I'm doing?

I find that running lots and lots of single queries is really slow, so
in a lot of cases, I prefer to just grab everything.
