   (pictureid :type integer :initarg :pictureid)
   (picture :db-kind :join
	    :db-info (:join-class picture
				  :home-key pictureid
				  :foreign-key pictureid
				  ;:target-slot contents
				  :set nil))
   ...

If picture class has a key, pictureid, and the bytes, contents, then I only
need contents to be in the above join slot. The documentation does not clearly
say this is not what is meant by :target-slot. I can live without this use of
:target-slot if necessary, although it remains confusing.
