I'm trying to cram the ORM into an existing schema and have an issue I
can't seem to get around.

I have a number of tables with a timestamp column, but the column name
is inconsistent. I would like to put the timestamp field in an
abstract superclass, but I can't seem to figure out how to override
the column name in the subclass. Can I do this?

Also, is there a better way to check for existence of a field in a
models.Manager method than the following:

    def filteredResults(self):
        qs = super(MyManager, self).get_query_set()
        for field in qs.model._meta.fields:

It works, but not sure how hacky this is...
