This is a nice feature since in SQL, an entity can be divided into different tables in order to avoid duplication

Hey @greentfrapp , playing around with this today. I think it's a good first pass, but can we make configuring a Join Attribute more explicit?

I get why you might not want to introduce a separate config object, but I think it would help someone know what's going on just by looking at the code or config - right now I have to rely on the example or dig into the code. A separate object might also prevent having to do all the regex and make it easier to add more options in the future.

Just my 2 cents :) let me know if you wanna discuss

Woops sorry @OneFishTwoFishRedFish-JFish I think this was automatically closed when I merged a PR that said "fixed 18"

Reopening for discussion - will take a closer look!
