Have you tried just using a has_a relationship? If all you want is to
be able to define a column as a foreign key and then be able to call
the methods of that foreign class you want has_a. might_have allows
object 1 to be able to call object 2's methods w/o chaining (ie.
$obj->method_from_other_class instead of $obj->other_obj->method).
