I agree with this.

As I say, it couldn't try the list myself because I had no internet
connection (yeah, just really bad timing from my ISP to broke and SA
payed the bill ;). But I decided to went back to SO anyways because SA
code was getting way too long anyways. Even so, I admit I like to give SA
another shot (with proper ML support :) because I still think it has great
future (and with this I don't imply it's a bad tool in the present, I
guess I had bad luck and my problem is one of the few cases SA doesn't
handle very well yet). And I still think it badly needs a more simple way
to define the tables/class/mappers. I had to give SA too much info to make
the relations properly.

I think the extra typing is excessive.

No, it isn't, I had to "hack" SO too to do some things (I had to write
intermediate tables myself to make "ordered" related joins, for example).
But I found easier to hack SO than SA, and I could get things working with
SO. The imposibility of SO to get rid of the extra id field for
intermediate tables drives me crazy ;)

What I mean is, I expected to find SA much more flexible in this terms,
but finally I found myself customizing SO much more easier than SA.
