Hi Dan
Sorry for the slow reply, and I'm afraid I don't have anything great to report:
there's no option for skipping that query in Thinking Sphinx at this point in
time (and indeed, I've not even implemented anything in the edge branch -
3.0.0.pre - for polymorphic associations). I'd love to say I'll get something
there, but I don't have much free time right now, so: patches are very much
welcome, if you want to take a stab at it.
