Hello, I have a question about the Active Record. Here, if I run the code it will work just fine :

 $options = array(
   'select' => array('id', 'user_id', 'title', 'thumb'),
   'where' => array(
     array('genre', '=', $genre)
   ),
   'limit' => 5
 );
 return parent::find('all', $options);

However, this is what I want to do :

 $options = array(
   'select' => array('id', 'user_id', 'title', 'thumb', 'rate/votes as overall'),
   'where' => array(
     array('genre', '=', $genre)
   ),
   'limit' => 5
 );
 return parent::find('all', $options);

I don't know HOW I can run mysql functions with the Active Record. I have tried using the ` (back tick) in multiple areas, but none work because of this :

$query .= implode(', ', array_unique(array_map($quote_ident, $this->_select)));

The $this->_select array needs to be evaluated before injecting into the query selector PS - DB DOCS!
