       Body:
I am using this patch and it works well. However, since subselects are not =
supported by Criteria, I find that the count() method is not as useful as i=
t could be because the result of running the query can contain duplicates.

How much effort would it be to implement a count("myProperty") method that =
would perform a select count(distinct 'myProperty') statement? Or is there =
a different way to achieve the same effect?
