Is there any way to provide consistent aliasing for column names
so that the parameters to ->search() and the column accessors
use the same column aliases?
I see DBIx::Class::Result::ProxyField on CPAN, but it looks not
quite complete?
Background: I'm trying to use DBIx::Class to access data from
a commercial database application. The app has completely
inconsistent column names, where the same column (often
a foreign key) has slightly or completely different names in
each table. I'd like to be able to consistently alias the columns
so that using the schema doesn't involve thinking, "Oh, I'm
using table X, not table Y, so the column I want is named Foo..."
Thanks,
Noel
