I'm not sure what you're getting at.  It sounds like you're answering
my other question (the "MySQL adapter returns integers as strings?"
thread).  I guess if you or DHH confirm that, I'll post a ticket.

Anyway, my question in this thread relates to adding methods to an
ActiveRecord-based model class.  It's easy for straightforward
table-mapping classes.  But for the results of a join, it's not so
clear to me.

Thanks,
Gavin
