I think you mean all the SQL should be in C4, and yes I agree with that.
C4::Table does not receive any SQL as arguments to select, insert or
delete.  I.E., it preserves the encapsulation of SQL inside C4/*.

This would speed up development of features because a C4/NewFeature.pm
module might not be necessary at all, or could focus on things special to
NewFeature besides basic table operations.  Once a table is added to the DB,
C4::Table can access it, no new code necessary.

And the other code will be more recognizable, using the same kind of
$table->select({fieldname=>"value"}) statements.  Would be nice to be able
to use the same OO code accessing issues and old_issues, or any of the XX
and old_XX tables, for example.
