Yeah, but that's exactly what I want to avoid. If somebody does
$user->confirmed_friendships, he/she is not supposed to know who
initiated the friendship (requestor or receiver). All he/she wants
is a list of User objects (except $user) which are friends of $user.
The same goes for the other two methods. Currently I can't see a
sane way to accomplish this with DBIx::Class :(
