   You didn't mention fromDatabase but I am sure that what you meant,
right? Because it's certainly possible to connect to an existing database
without it.

   By declaring them yourself:

class MyTable(SQLObject):
    class sqlmeta:
        fromDatabase = True
    fk = ForeignKey('AnotherTable')
    mj = MultipleJoin('AnotherTable', joinColumn='at_id')

   Explicit declarations are compatible with fromDatabase. And of course
you are not obliged to use fromDatabase at all - just declare all you
columns and joins yourself.
   Of course IWBN if your patch fromDatabase machinery (methods
columnsFromSchema and guessClass in Connection class) to recognize at least
ForeignKeys.
