    Maybe.

    I guess it doesn't really matter since you can easily add it in as a
    superclass if such convenience methods fits your style of programming. In
    my experience with WebObject's EOF, Toplink, and Cayenne, such frameworks
    always return a list of objects for a query, and not just a single item.

    My GenericEntity superclass has essentially contained the same methods
    across all three frameworks.
