# TODO

- Sugar: make the ugly syntaxes go away!
- Verbose option to know what's going on
- Implement sql adapter
- Get rid of util and use _.js instead
- Should be able to mass save collections: $.wrap(User, []).save() ?
- Idea: disregard cache: savee, disregard cache and validations: saveee, etc.  LOL :)
- Handle created_at updated_at! maybe that should be a presave hook instead of bloating the core?
- Bug when defining model with same name more than once
- Implement automatic lazy loading using function generators??
- Use a task queue for db operations... this would allow us to add
operations anywhere in the code. Would be helpful for self-referential
relationships... if self referential relationship detected, add update
to queue that updates the referenced ID?
- Handle cycles nicely when saving/updating an object graph
- HTML adapter lol: writes your data to HTML files. objects are linked
