8375	It's better to allow using tables parameter with custom alias in extra query	Wonlay	nobody	"Sometimes we need specify tables that are already used in the query (In my case INNER JOIN on the save model).[[BR]]
Currently, django don't allow such queries, the extra table won't create another alias.[[BR]]
I find it's better, if we allow specifying a explicit alias, so that we can use the extra query like this:[[BR]]
{{{
MyModel.objects.extra(tables['app_table1 alias1'], where=['app_table1.col1=alias1.col1', 'alias1.name like ...'])
}}}
