[SQLObject] Proposal: change .get(int) to .get_id(int)

Proposal: change .get(int) to .get_id(int)

It would be nice to be able to add common pythonic methods to our
SQLObject objects without running into collisions. i.e. for a dict-like
object, it might be nice to hand a SQLObject instance which has

def get(key):

def items():

def values():

def has_key():

etc.

That first one is the killer, .get() is used inside SQLObject, returns
the an object by the "id" relation.

Occasionally I've got a SQL relation where I don't want anyone to
think/see or smell the serial int identity column - a unique string as
key is what I"m after, very dict like.

So it would be handy, and mildly stylish to be able to define our own
get() without breaking the insides of SQLObject. Admittedly it will be
more cumbersome to type three more digits when we are really after the
"id" attribute/relation.

default - no "get()"

current "get()" changes to "get_id()" or something else.

Too little sleep, not enough time lately, if I've missed something here
please slap me gently.
