Has any thought been put into possibly adding the ability to the Torque
database schema to map specific database fields to different Java types,
perhaps supplying a conversion function? This would allow one to have the
torque generated classes more accurately model the "java view", even if the
database dosn't. 

I see something like this

<table name="book" description="Book Table"> 
        <column
                name="onloan" 
                required="false" 
                primaryKey="false" 
                type="SMALLINT" 
                javaType="boolean"
                conversionClass="org.me.SmallintBooleanConverter"
                description="Book Id"/>

...
</table>

where the conversionClass would be optional, with a set of defined default
conversion classes.
