Well it comes down to the question that was asked several times upstream:

what is the information you want to see?

I am not talking about a query, but a description of what attributes you
want on what database objects.

Also given, from previous post:

"I am a little in the dark as well since this is just a broken piece of
ORM i am attempting to fix, in the framework."

Is this not something that should be discussed with the framework
developers, or are we already doing that:)?
