24020	Use expressions in ORM internals	Anssi Kääriäinen	Anssi Kääriäinen	We should use expressions instead of tuples of form (alias, column, field) when calculating the select, order_by and group by clauses of the ORM. The WHERE clause already uses lookups, and joins were made to use Join classes. This would finalize usage of expression like objects throughout the query compiling process.
