jvanasco:

(I'm not sure the best venue for this suggestion.  If it's the mailinglist or other.)

While auditing my code, I realized that it can be tricky to understand what it going on in a relationship, as much functionality is controlled by kwargs.

Would it possibly be useful to newcomers if there were aliases for relationship and backref?

basically the idea would be something like:

    sqlalchemy.orm.relationships.one_2_many
    sqlalchemy.orm.relationships.one_2_one

this way, usage of "uselist=False" doesn't get obscured in a list of kwargs
