Ah, OK, that's fine for when you only need to update/insert to/delete from
that KeyRelation table. But, of course, if you *need* to perform DML on
more than one of the tables, using the xxxxSQL properties is pretty cool
for making the joined dataset updateable...

I don't think that an xxxSQL property like

execute procedure UpdateMe(:param1, :param2, ....)

is really *clumsy*, if the params have the same names as the columns of the
dataset and the KeyLinks are perfect.
