# to do 
# instead of creating a class, use a module which is included on startup
# then, after specifying the namespace and before autoaccolating the database-classes create the proper E-Base-class and include this stuff

establish contrains on Edges

Edges are uniq!

Creates individual indices for child-classes if applied to the class itself.

  The parameters »from« **or** »to« can take a list of model-records. Then subsequent edges are created.
