actually, what's biting me is this (I'm translating from a different
model into this one that is similar to the example, for clarity and
brevity; I hope I don't muss ep):

    >>> [i.getPerson().getId() for i in ec.fetch('Address')]
    [4, 5]
    >>> ec.fetch('Address', 'person.id == 4')
    []

in trying to simplify this last time I got the behaviour above, which
I misinterpreted as the same thing.
