Suggestion: let define custom id field

[sebpatu]

Hi, The ufront ORM will automatically add the field id, but if i define an id field in my Spod, i get a compile error. It would be good if the ufront macro let users define custom fields, and add it automatically only when it does not exist.

Thanks Seb

At the moment the "id:SUId" field is not added through the macro, but rather in the base ufront.db.Object class.

I think one workaround may be to split it into:

• sys.db.Object - standard haxe db object
• ufront.db.BaseObject extends sys.db.Object - adds save() and our ufront's build macro
• ufront.db.Object extends BaseObject - adds id, created, modified.

So that way you could use BaseObject and specify your own ID.

Some work would be required to get this to work cleanly with BelongsTo<> and ManyToMany and HasMany relations, it is certainly possible. Pull requests welcome :) Otherwise I'll look at it when I get time.
