I'm working on a plug-in that will allow has_many associations to ignore the foreign key. This may sound silly, but there are situations where you'd like to join on something other than a single foreign key. Right now, I can configure :conditions for the association, but these are in addition to the existing foreign key.
My plug-in would do something akin to http://pastie.org/319143. This is really just pseudo-code, I haven't tested it yet. So, two questions: - Am I the only one crazy enough to think something like this is useful? - How can a plugin monkey-patch ActiveRecord for this? Just override the entire construct_sql method?
