This is good, but I think that we need to make sure that we have a more
complete solution. I feel that this will lead us down a hackdom path.
In other words, essentially, you want to encapsulate some of the business
logic of the application into the schema.xml file. I think that this is a
good thing.
So, you have a schema that looks like this:
<table name="movies">
<column name="movietypeid"/>
<foreign-key foreigntable="movietypes">
<reference local="movietypeid" foreign="movietypeid"/>
</foreign-key>
</table>
Given that you know that movietypeid is a FK, you already know that the
movietypeid column references another table. I'm not sure why you would need
to add another column type to figure that out. We should generate the
get/set code for all of the times we have this case.
