Comment (by aaugustin):

 The discussions on the previous attempt show that grouping code by the
 type of relation (one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-many) doesn't work very
 well. It raises hard questions about where code would end up after
 plausible refactorings.

 I'd like to suggest a different approach: group code by the type of
 objects defined:

 - descriptors
 - managers
 - "rel objects" (these don't have a good name)
 - etc.

 This is straightforward, reasonably future proof — if we introduce a new
 kind of object it's easy to add a module.

 It groups similar code nicely and allows for module docstrings explaining
 the role of each layer.
