Most of the time it doesn't seem to make any difference. However, when IBO
encounters an ambiguous situation that it can't figure out from the field
and param names alone, it can go a level "outward" and consider the table
qualifiers, if they are present.

Maybe. Or maybe you are in one of your ambiguous many:many conditions
that, according to you, are AOK. Still, I'm not willing to go there. I say
that a detail can have only one master and you deny it, so there's really
no other place to go on this issue.
