I'd like for my has_many :conditions clause to refer to columns on both sides of the association. This would require left joining the tables, all the time.
See http://www.pastie.org/320700
I've already whipped up a little patch that allows me to drop the primary key relationship, so I can include whatever conditions I want. But it just complains that one of the columns is nonexistent, since I can't figure out how to require a left-join every time.
Is such a thing possible?
Thanks,
Norman
