Is there a good way to work with additional fields in the ORM many-to-many relationship tables?
Ex: I have a movies_movielists table that is used to establish a relationship when a movie is added to a list. I would like to be able to add a 'added_by' and 'date_added' values but can't figure out how to do that via ORM.
If the through table has attributes, it's not a through table anymore, it needs a model, and your many-to-many will become two one-to-many's with the new model in the middle.
For easy of use you can leave the many-2-many relation in place, so you can use both.
